Combining informative, meticulously crafted prose with more than
4,000 high-quality images, Osborn's Brain, third edition, is a
comprehensive, easy to understand, and visually stunning learning
curriculum from highly esteemed author Dr. Anne G. Osborn. This fully
revised edition provides a solid framework for understanding the
complex subject of brain imaging, integrating relevant information from
Dr. Osborn’s entire career of accumulated knowledge, experience, and
interest in neuropathology, neurosurgery, and clinical neurosciences.
While neuroradiologists will find intriguing, thought-provoking
insights included especially for them in every chapter, Osborn’s Brain
is an excellent review resource for physicians at all levels of
expertise—from seasoned radiologists and neurosurgeons to new and
senior residents or fellows.
Combines essential anatomy with
gross pathology and imaging, clearly demonstrating why and how diseases
appear the way they do and helping readers think clearly about
diagnoses, types of diagnoses, and the various pathologies that can
affect the brain
Guides readers through the “must know aspects of
neuroimaging and neuropathology (brain trauma, stroke, vascular
lesions, etc.) before zeroing in on such topics as infections,
demyelinating and inflammatory diseases, neoplasms,
toxic-metabolic-degenerative disorders, and congenital brain
malformations
Provides state-of-the-art coverage on such topics as
new brain tumor entities, the effects of emerging viral illness such as
COVID-19 on the brain, and recently delineated/named diseases (e.g.,
HIV-associated CD8 encephalitis)
Features more than 4,000
stunning, high-resolution radiologic images and 100+ detailed,
full-color medical illustrations, all of which are annotated to
describe the most clinically significant features; and includes robust,
digital-only galleries that contain hundreds of additional images that
further illustrate each chapter
Includes up-to-date nomenclature
based on the 5th edition of the WHO Classification of Tumors, Central
Nervous System, including a complete revision, expansion, and updating
of CNS neoplasms with new entities, revised grading criteria,
diagnostic molecular pathology, and nomenclature
Contains Dr.
Osborn’s trademark summary boxes for a quick review of essential facts,
signature graphics with additional radiological and pathologic
correlations, and up-to-the-minute literature references
