Cerebrovascular disease is the most common serious neurologic condition, and imaging is the best way to determine the precise nature of it. Including all methods of stroke imaging, this text will assist neurologists in becoming more proficient in interpreting images to better diagnose and manage patients with cerebrovascular disease. This atlas will keep neurologist up-to-date with the newest imaging techniques.
