This book is a complete guide to skull base imaging covering all current techniques including CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Angiography, CT Cisternography and Plain Film Radiography.

Divided into eight sections, each part covers imaging techniques for a different region of the skull base, including cerebellopontine, anterior, posterior and middle cranial fossa, the pituitary region, craniovertebral junction and more. The final chapters discuss inflammatory disorders and sarcomas.

The book includes the very latest techniques including diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and FLAIR. Each chapter features key points, clues, incidence and location, as well as detail on presentation, epidemiology, pathology, staging, differential diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.

Authored by recognised experts from Washington and Michigan, this comprehensive guide is enhanced by radiological images and illustrations
