Product Description
This volume in the best-selling "Case Review" series uses hundreds of case studies to challenge your knowledge of a full range of topics in brain imaging. With 170 brand new cases, new coverage of MRA, CTA, MR spectroscopy and multi-detectors and over 600 brilliant images, this is your ideal concise, economical, and user-friendly tool for self assessment in this specialty!
- Utilizes case studies organized into "Opening Round," "Fair Game," and "Challenge" sections, so you can test yourself at varying difficulty levels.
- Provides at-a-glance review/self-testing of brain imaging cases ideal for preparing for the boards in brain imaging, the CAQ exam for neuroradiology or for the general radiologist ready for re-certification.
- Mimics the official exam formats and daily practice environment by giving you cases/images as unknowns with three to four questions; then, on the flip side of the page, diagnosis, answers to the questions, additional commentary, and references to the corresponding volume in Elsevier's popular Requisites Series.
- Includes 600 state of the art images to effectively compliment and support the text and provide a clear picture of what you can expect, both in test-taking and in practice.
- Uses randomly organized cases so you can test yourself without the aid of logical organization by anatomy or disease type.
- Includes 170 new cases and over 50 new diagnoses so you can keep pace with the latest developments.
- Includes a greater emphasis on differential diagnosis.
- Adds coverage of MRA, CTA, MR spectroscopy and multi-detectors to keep you completely current.
- Provides all new images for existing entities.
- Adds cutting-edge coverage of neuro-imaging including spectroscopy, CTA, MRA, Functional imaging, tractography, perfusion and diffusion.

I've been looking for such a book both in USA and China for a long time, and now I find it.
It's good for integrating the differentiate diagnosis. However, if there are more new MR techniques (DTI,PWI,etc.), it will be better.

The advantage of the graded approach, and the extraction in the text descriptions of key substantive points is excellent. Emphasis is on the findings, less on the academic differentials. Perfect to study along with detailed texts. The keys to the "Requisites" first edition is awesome: but anyone know where one can buy, beg, borrow, or steal a key to the Second edition of "Requisites"?
