Preface
The International Diagnostic Course in Davos (IDKD) offers a unique learning
experience for imaging specialists in training as well as for experienced radiolo-
gists and clinicians wishing to be updated on the current state of the art and the
latest developments in the fields of imaging and image-guided interventions.
This annual course deals with neuroimaging of the brain, head, neck, and spine.
During the last few years, there have been considerable advances in this subject,
driven by clinical as well as technological developments. The authors, interna-
tionally renowned experts in their field, have contributed chapters that are disease-
oriented and cover all relevant imaging modalities, including magnetic resonance
imaging, computed tomography, and positron emission tomography, as well as im-
age-guided interventions. As a result, this book offers a comprehensive review of
the state-of-the art in neuroimaging. It is particularly relevant for general radiol-
ogists, radiology residents, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and other clinicians
wishing to update their knowledge in this discipline.
The Syllabus is designed to be an “aide-mémoire” for the course participants
sothat they can fully concentrate on the lectures and participate in the discussions
without the need of taking notes.
