Titelbeschreibung

In the Name of Love and Family This book could not have been completed without the continuing support of my wife, Isabelle, who, as a radiologist herself, not only understood my end- vours to complete this work, but who was also my most loyal supporter. As the mother of our three daughters, Alexia, Olivia and Félicia, she is also the corn- stone of our wonderful family and I wish to dedicate this book to these four women in my life. Edegem Johan W. M. Van Goethem This book is dedicated ? rst and foremost to the ones I love: Marleen, my wife, and our children Vincent, Isabel, Liesa and Marie. Our children, they are the future. My thanks go to Paul and Johan, not only for teaching me neuroradiology, but primarily for their friendship. We have been working together for many years now in the spirit of the three musketeers (Les Trois Mousquetaires, a novel by Alexandre Dumas), inseparable men who chant the motto “One for all, and all for one”.

Back cover copy

This is a richly illustrated and comprehensive textbook on the imaging of frequently encountered spinal disorders. Degenerative disease, spinal trauma, spinal tumors and the postoperative spine are addressed in detail. In addition, there are individual chapters on embryology, the pediatric spine, biomechanics, scoliosis, bone marrow disorders, infections, spondyloarthropathies and imaging of the sacrum. All imaging modalities are considered, including plain film, multidetector CT and MRI. The book is intended for daily use in any practice that engages in spinal imaging, and will assist both in film interpretation and in image acquisition. Its logical structure and extensive, accurate index are specifically designed to ensure ease of use.
