It is intended for radiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, oncologists and other scientists in the biomedical field with an interest in neuro-oncology. The book opens with an introduction to the clinically relevant physical principles of brain imaging. Since MR methodology plays a crucial role in brain imaging, the fundamental aspects of MR spectroscopy, MR perfusion and diffusion-weighted MR methods are described, focusing on the specific demands of brain tumor imaging. The potential and limits of conventional MR imaging and new imaging methodology are carefully addressed. In the main part of the book, the most important imaging criteria for the differential diagnosis of solid and necrotic brain tumors are delineated and illustrated in examples. Specific issues relevant to all MR modalities used for this purpose are thoroughly discussed. A closing section is devoted to the use of MR methods for the monitoring of brain tumor therapy. 410 0$aDiagnostic Imaging,$x2731-4685 606 $aNervous system$xRadiography 606 $aOncology 606 $aNeurology 606 $aNeuroradiology 606 $aOncology 606 $aNeurology 615 0$aNervous system$xRadiography. 615 0$aOncology. 615 0$aNeurology. 615 14$aNeuroradiology. 615 24$aOncology. 615 24$aNeurology. 676 $a616.99481 702 $aHattingen$b Elke$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPilatus$b Ulrich$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254511403321 996 $aBrain Tumor Imaging$92528951 997 $aUNINA
