Preface
The textbook Neuroimaging Techniques in Clinical Practice was conceptualized due to the ever-increasing complexity of neuroimaging in today’s clinical practice. The first edition of the book is the result of the work of numerous expert authors and author groups, consisting of some of the most recognized, brilliant, and accomplished experts in the field of neuroimaging from all over the world. Many of the chapters are written by pioneers in their field of expertise, such as the chapters about CT-Perfusion, Photon Counting CT, Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI), or Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM). This book also covers the basics and recent advancements of the modalities plain film radiography, ultrasound, digital subtraction angiography (DSA), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and electroencephalography (EEG) for an interested reader without assumed prior knowledge in medical physics. Therefore, the book is suitable for physicians who would like to improve their understanding of the underlying imaging techniques and at the same time it allow
