Eugene Yu and Reza Forghani have produced an exceptional, imaging-focused guide on various neoplastic diseases affecting the skull base, with contributions from a Who's Who of prominent radiologists, head and neck surgeons, neurosurgeons, and radiation oncologists. The content is presented in a clear and concise fashion with chapters organized anatomically. From the Anterior Cranial Fossa, Nasal Cavity, and Paranasal Sinuses - to the Petroclival and Lateral Skull Base, an overview and detailed analysis is provided for each region.

Key Highlights

• Fundamentals of skull base imaging, including recent developments in diagnostic modalities
• More than 400 radiographs, color anatomical drawings, and color intraoperative photos elucidate the imaging appearances of a wide spectrum of disease affecting the skull base, as well as important anatomic variants and pathways of disease spread
• Clinically oriented imaging approach focuses on diagnostic and prognostic features important in the evaluation of skull base abnormalities
• Atlas of skull base CT and MRI anatomy provides an easy to access, quick reference for identifying important anatomic landmarks
• Insights on the pathways of tumor growth and the role of clinical imaging in the management of skull base cancers
• Critical and contrasting viewpoints from multidisciplinary experts provide a well-rounded perspective

This invaluable resource chronicles current knowledge in state-of-the-art skull base tumor imaging with clinical pearls on pathophysiology, prognosis, and treatment options. It is a must-have for radiology, neurosurgery, and otolaryngology residents and clinicians who care for patients with head and neck neoplasms.
