Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Authored and edited by one of the world's most prominent neuroradiologists, this innovative text is certain to become the new standard among diagnostic brain imaging references. The second volume in the new Diagnostic Imaging Series from Amirsys and Saunders, it features a templated full-colour format that makes finding information much easier. Each chapter presents all of the information readers need to pinpoint a diagnosis. Coverage of each entity addresses Clinical Presentation · Pathologic Features · Imaging Findings for the appropriate modalities · and Differential Diagnosis lists. In addition, chapters have detailed anatomic drawings in full color, an extensive image case gallery, and a visual 'thumbnail' differential diagnosis. Numerous surgical, gross and histologic pathology photographs are included. No other neuro imaging text is as comprehensive and user-friendly. The unique bulleted format provides efficient reading, with the same information in the same place-every time! It's as if an expert has done the highlighting for you!
- Covers the top diagnoses in brain, including both common and uncommon entities.
- Uses a concise, highly templated approach-similar to POCKETRADIOLOGIST®-but provides more details for each heading, more references, many more images, and more case data. You get twice the facts, and four times the images as other texts. There is no extra verbiage!
- Each section offers a 4 page introduction covering the anatomy or pathology and imaging issues pertaining to the specific diagnoses covered in that section.
- Offers a vivid, full-colour design with over 150 colour anatomy and pathology drawings with colour tabs keying each section
- Provides detailed coverage of key facts and differential diagnosis.
- Includes an extensive image gallery for each entity with common and variant cases
- Displays a 'thumbnail' visual differential diagnosis for each entity.

Dear ALL potential buyers:
Undeniably this is a wonderful book to have. But unfortunately,Amazon does not stock it and you have to purchase it from other book sellers. I randomly chose the very first seller on the list who is Superbook dealers (SBD). To my disappointment, I waited for 4 month, ie more than 120 days. The book has not arrived, and yet the money has been debited right from day 1.
I wrote to their customer support twice and they sent me the generic reply twice, explaining there are some confusion about the 'business delivery date', but 4 months!!!! i expect better explanation than this generic email.
So, those of you who are contemplating of purchasing this book, Don't Don't ever consider buying this book from SBD. Because you will not get it.
As to-date, i still haven't received my PAID book.

Her textbook Diagnostic Neuroradiology had made quite an impact when it came out. The only comparable book was that by Ruth Ramsey previously. Since that textbook had been the reference for everybody, a new edition was expected by everybody. This new format comes as a surprise. While it is certainly more exhaustive in scope than her previous book (taht was a bit skimpy on the spine IMHO), the format used does not do too well with me. I have personally never really liked these list-type textbooks. This is of course a good reference for anyone who wants to look up something during daily routine (even if each reference section is somewhat too short) but it cannot really be used to learn the basics of neuroradiology that one neeeds for training. The sometimes lengthy discussions in the book by Taveras are needed in order to approach Neuroradiology as an art. while you probably have to buy this for reference you must also get another textbook.
