Intracranial Vascular Malformations and Aneurysms: From Diagnostic Work-Up to Endovascular Therapy

This book describes the pathoanatomical, pathophysiological, and imaging features of vascular malformations and aneurysms of the brain and the modern, minimally invasive endovascular methods and techniques employed in their treatment. Individual chapters are devoted to developmental venous malformations, cavernomas and capillary telangiectasias, pial arteriovenous malformations, dural arteriovenous malformations, and intracranial aneurysms. Each chapter is subdivided into four principal sections on pathology, clinical presentation, diagnostic imaging, and therapy, ensuring a standardized approach throughout. All chapters in this 2nd revised edition of Intracranial Vascular Malformations and Aneurysms have been thoroughly updated. The book is richly illustrated with numerous informative CT, MR and DSA images, including high-end 7-Tesla MR images.
