- Zusatztext
- Neuromuscular imaging has increasingly become an important tool in the detection and diagnosis of inherited and acquired neuromuscular disease. This book is a groundbreaking radiological and neurological overview of current methods and applications of imaging-including aspects of neuroimaging and musculoskeletal imaging-in patients with inherited, metabolic, and inflammatory muscle diseases. Imaging features are discussed in the context of clincial presentation, histopathology, therapeutic options and differential diagnosis. World leading expert contributors give a comprehensive and didactic review of neuromuscular disorders and available imaging modalities, each illustrated with numerous figures. Topics discussed include:-Modalities such as ultrasound, CT and MRI-Muscle anatomy and physiology-Clinical applications in hereditary and acquired myopathies-Clinical applications in motor neuron disorders and peripheral nerve imaging
