Neuroimaging techniques are crucial in the management of stroke patients. This book is an important resource in the quest to better understand stroke and its heterogeneity. After a first chapter on the classification of stroke, it outlines that neuroimaging techniques are not only useful to diagnose stroke, its mechanisms, and its causes, but are also an important tool to improve our knowledge on the pathophysiology of stroke and of its recovery.
