Advances in Clinical Neuroradiology: Neuroradiology is in the process of es
tablishing itself as being both diagnostic and therapeutic To make the most
rational and economic use of the vast array of imaging methods and techniq
ues presently available, the neuroradiologist must be well versed in their
relative merits and drawbacks. The advent of fast and "ultrafast" imaging t
echniques has led to the development of dynamic-functional procedures that
allow to assess and possibly quantify important neurophysiologic parameters
. The ongoing evolution and refinement of interventional, specifically endo
vascular techniques. strengthens the role of neuroradiology as a clinical d
iscipline.
