Description
Motor vehicle accidents are the most common accidental cause of severe head injuries, while child abuse is a major and increasing cause of non-accidental head trauma. Chief of Neuroradiology and Diagnostic Radiology Residency Director at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, Oregon, James C. Anderson MD discusses the various types of injuries encountered in traumatic brain injury, and how advanced imaging studies such as CT and MRI each play a critical role in the diagnostic evaluation of closed head trauma. He describes the accepted classification methods, and perhaps more importantly, shows the reader why traumatic brain injury should be thought of as a continuum of potential ongoing injury to the brain. An invaluable addition to the physician’s quick look-up personal library.
The RadGuidance® series of ebooks offers practicing clinicians - both primary care doctors and specialists - a quick and easy reference to over 100 distinct conditions, and how state-of-the-art imaging should be applied within the context of diagnosis, preoperative staging and therapy monitoring.
Authored by board certified radiologists who also teach at the finest medical schools in the U.S. and abroad, each book is presented in a clear and concise manner meant to be read in less than an hour, yet contains all the necessary information upon which to base a decision on when to order advanced imaging studies for the particular disease process under review.
The RadGuidance series offers referring physicians and radiology students the opportunity to confirm suspicions and validate decisions by accessing precisely targeted information quickly and economically as cases present in daily practice.
