Review
Doctors Oscar Bacelar, Ana De Vera, E.Radue with clinical advisor Ludwig Kappoos
have done a commendable job in the CD tutorial "MS in MRI." They are
all affiliated with MS-MRI Evaluation Centre, Neuroradiology in University Hospital
Basel.
Although this reviewer thinks the title should be "MRI in MS", this
is the only change I would suggest.
The tutorial reviews basics of MRI, with a focus on techniques relevant to MS.
Newer technologies such as MRS and MTR are reviewed in the final chapter. I
especially appreciated some of the clinical case histories with corresponding
MRI"s. This CD would be appropriate for anyone working with MS, but may be too
basic for seasoned neuroradiologists or some MS specialists.
CD Content:
Preliminary Remarks
Diagnosing MS
Typical Lesions
Pitfalls
Differential Diagnosis
Monitoring the MS MRI Evolution
MRI Protocols and New Techniques
