From the reviews: "This book details a comprehensive approach to the diagnosis and treatment of spine disease from neuroradiology, medical, radiotherapy, and surgical perspectives. ... The multimodality approach this book presents is unique and adds an important dimension to this complex topic. The target audience is the scientific world as a whole, but more specifically practitioners in disciplines concerned with the effective diagnosis and treatment of patients with spine disease."
