Pediatric Neurology: Clinical and Imaging Case Studies is a richly illustrated, case-based resource that explores the complementary roles of neurology and radiology for patient diagnosis and treatment. This unique volume is authored by world-class child neurologists and pediatric neuroradiologists who demonstrate the essential role of interdisciplinary collaboration in clinical care. Expert-selected cases comprise this valuable educational tool and reference text for diverse audiences including primary care physicians, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and neuroradiologists.
Key Features
- Provides case-based teaching organized by disease type, with multiple conditions discussed in each section
- Introduces each disease as an unknown, progresses through the patient workup, and ends with the final diagnosis
- Highlights clinical and imaging pearls, pitfalls, and differential diagnoses for every case
- Emphasizes guidelines for radiologic interpretation across a diverse array of pediatric neurologic disorders
- Over 1,000 images represent the collective knowledge and expertise of internationally recognized neurologists and neuroradiologists
