Craniopharyngioma – A childhood and adult disease with different characteristics
Craniopharyngiomas are benign, partly cystic embryogenic malformations of the sellar region, presumably derived from Rathke cleft epithelium. With an overall incidence of 0.5–2 new cases per million population per year, approximately 30-50% of all cases represent childhood craniopharyngioma. Typical manifestations at primary diagnosis are headache, visual impairment, polyuria/polydypsia, growth retardation, and weight gain. One of the biggest challenges in treating craniopharyngioma is identifying the best candidates for the radical versus the conservative approach. It appears there is a trend towards radiotherapy in centers with past prevalent surgical approaches, and towards more radical...

MRI of the Body
As with the introduction of x -ray computed tomography, much of the initial development of magnetic resonance applications tended to focus on the central nervous system. The development of magnetic resonance imaging applications to other organ systems such as the chest, abdomen, pelvis and extremities has lagged somewhat behind, awaiting technical improvements, and a broader user base. The past two years have seen a marked increase in imaging applications throughout the body, most notably the musculoskeletal system. It is in this regard, that MRI of the Body is a welcome arrival as a text which describes both basic principles of magnetic resonance ima ging and surveys the current status of m...
Orthopedic Imaging
Featuring over 4,000 large-size illustrations and unique, effective pedagogy, the Fifth Edition of Dr. Greenspan's best-seller is the ideal teaching text on musculoskeletal imaging for radiologists and orthopedists at every level of training. Orthopedic Imaging: A Practical Approach covers all orthopedic problems and imaging modalities and offers indispensable guidance on selecting cost-effective imaging techniques. The Fifth Edition has a new full-color design, with colorized tables and schematics and full-color illustrations including PET-CT. All conventional tomography has been replaced by CT. Coverage of MRI—the scan of choice for more clinical situations than ever—has been greatly expanded, especially in areas related to arthritis. More three-dimensional CT scans have been added, particularly to areas covering trauma. Musculoskeletal ultrasound coverage has been increased. Practical Points to Remember appear at the end of each chapter to outline salient points. A companion website will offer the fully searchable text and images.
Imaging of Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors
This volume presents a selection of clinical cases with the emphasis on tumors of bone and soft tissues. Case for case, the reader is supplied with information and invited to suggest a diagnosis. In each case the patient's history is briefly reviewed and characteristic images are reproduced. Special importance is attached to lucid analysis, basic considerations and systematic image interpretation. Each case is histologically verified, and the definitive diagnosis is betrayed on the last page. Case presentations closes with a concise summary of the important clinical data relating to the entity concerned. This authoritative yet eminently readable book is a practical guide to the analysis of the kind of complex orthopedic cases with which orthopedists and radiologists should become familiar.
