Interventional Neuroradiology of the Spine

From the reviews:“This book details a comprehensive approach to the diagnosis and treatment of spine disease from neuroradiology, medical, radiotherapy, and surgical perspectives. … The multimodality approach this book presents is unique and adds an important dimension to this complex topic. The target audience is the scientific world as a whole, but more specifically practitioners in disciplines concerned with the effective diagnosis and treatment of patients with spine disease.” (Scott E. Forseen, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2013)
