Written by leading experts in neuroradiology, this volume is a comprehensive text and reference on pediatric neuroimaging. The book interrelates the clinical, physiologic, and radiologic imaging aspects of the pediatric brain and provides a thorough understanding of both normal brain development and disease processes. More than 1,300 high-quality scans complement the text. The first section describes the techniques used in pediatric neuroimaging, including computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, cranial sonography of the infant, and vascular and interventional neuroradiology. The second section focuses on diseases of the pediatric brain, eye and orbit, ear and temporal bone, head and neck, and spine. Each chapter features a multimodality orientation and discusses the most relevant imaging modalities. The chapters on neonatal brain injury, imaging in childhood epilepsy, the eye and orbit, and the ear and temporal bone are coauthored with clinical subspecialists, who provide valuable perspective on the clinical significance of imaging findings
