Preface
Technology has been developing in the field of medical science at a rapid pace
for the past 20 or 30 years. Great developments recently have been made in the
techniques of diagnosis and treatment in clinical neuroscience, especially in the
field of cerebrospinal vascular diseases. The advances in neuroimaging have
broadened the field of anatomical imaging to include physiological, functional,
and metabolic mapping. Other advances have added the new methods of
endovascular surgery and stereotactic radiosurgery to the treatment of cerebro
spinal vascular diseases.
The present volume contains papers presented at The International Sym
posium: Recent Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment of Cerebrospinal
Vascular Diseases and special lectures at the 23rd Annual Meeting of the Japan
Neuroradiology Society held in Kobe, Japan, in February 1994. This volume is
a comprehensive description of current knowledge of the diagnosis and treat
ment of cerebrospinal vascular diseases with a special focus on new strategies
in functional brain imaging, magnetic resonance angiography, endovascular
surgery, and stereotactic radiosurgery.
I wish to express our thanks to the contributors for their participation and
cooperation, and to Springer-Verlag for personal and technical assistance in
publishing this work.
I sincerely hope that this volume will contribute to improving the diagnosis
and treatment of cerebrospinal vascular diseases.
