Press release from: Thieme Publishers

New York/Stuttgart – The cranial nerves are 12 pairs of nerves that can be seen on the bottom surface of the brain. Pathology affecting every cranial nerve can be assessed routinely with high-resolution computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In the visually-driven “Cranial Nerves: Anatomy, Pathology, Imaging,” published by Thieme, this single-volume book incorporates detailed descriptions of the anatomy and function of cranial nerves with practical coverage of clinical concepts for the assessment and differential diagnosis of cranial nerve dysfunction. This is currently the only atlas in this field that combines normal anatomy with case studies and pathology illustrated with modern cross-sectional techniques.

“[the authors] have exceeded my expectations and produced a wonderful addition to my library that will become a classic,” states William P. Dillon, MD, Professor and Chief of Neuroradiology, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California.

This atlas adeptly combines the surgical perspective of an experienced neurosurgeon and the imaging knowledge of talented neuroradiologists to provide a complete picture of complex cranial nerve anatomy and pathology. The book commences with a general introduction and then each subsequent chapter details the functional anatomy and pathology of the 12 cranial nerves, complete with tables, bullet point summaries and numerous illustrations highlighting case studies.

In this lavishly illustrated book more than 300 high-quality images and state-of-the art CT and MR images depict key anatomic concepts and pathologic findings. The authors use tables to synthesize key information related to anatomy, function, pathology, and imaging.
