With the advent of combined modality imaging, it has become essential for the radiologists how structure and function relate to each other. Previously radiologists had to rely upon CT or MRI in order to tell the location of a problem but could not assess functionally what was going on within the patient. PET image has allowed radiologists to make a functional assessment to aid in the diagnosis and treatment planning for patients. This issue reviews the use of PET/CT and PET/MRI to evaluate patients with neurologic disorders, malignant and nonmalignant thoracic disorders, the cardiovascular system, breast diseases, musculoskeletal system, abdominal and pelvic disorders, and endocrine disorders.

Diffusion-weighted MR Imaging, Perfusion MR Imaging, and Diffusion Tensor Imaging provide information that is present in no other imaging modality. With Guest Editor Scott Reeder focusing on the body and Guest Editor Pratik Mukerjee exploring the neurological aspects of these three imaging modalities, this is a must-have resource for any radiologist involved in MR Imaging. It explores such subjects as: Diffusion weighted MR imaging in musculoskeletal radiology, Arterial Spin Labeled Perfusion Imaging, and Diffusion Tensor Imaging of Neurodegenerative Diseases.

Emerging Concepts in MR Angiography, An Issue of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics

Angiography is a minimally invasive medical test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions. More and more physicians have been using Magnetic Resonance Angiography due to the fact that it is a noninvasive imaging technique that does not involve exposure to radiation. This current and up-to-date new issue of MRI Clinics explores MRA with many articles written by clinicians at the top of their field. Topics include: Dynamic 4D MRA of the Abdomen, Pediatric MR Angiography, and Non Contrast MRA.

Musculoskeletal Radiology: Past, Present, and Future, An Issue of Radiologic Clinics

This issue takes a survey approach to the role of imaging of the musculoskeletal system. Starting with the role of conventional radiographs, all modalities including MR, CT, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine are reviewed, as well as interventional applications, such as arthrography, radiofrequency, and cryoablation of tumors.

Imaging of Airway Diseases, An Issue of Radiologic Clinics of North America

Starting with the mouth and nose, airways are the part of the respiratory system in which air is transported to the lungs. If any of these airways become compromised, then respiration can become more difficult. Most common among the causes of these types of illnesses is asthma. Also prominent is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which is a significant cause of death worldwide. In addition to reviews of diseases affecting the airways, this issue also covers airway anatomy and variants, congenital anomalies of airways, and CT-bronchoscopic correlations.

Despite technical advances using MR and the emergence of PET imaging, CT continues to be a frequently used imaging modality that has not stood still while others have thrived. Advances in CT have continued apace with other modalities which have taken CT into new areas of imaging that just a few short years ago it could not approach. With the advent of 64-slice CT, a greater number of images can be taken in a much quicker period of time. The use of CT perfusion in the brain and abdomen are reviewed in this issue. Cutting edge techniques such as 4D CT and dual energy CT will be discussed, as well as CT applications for imaging of the coronary arteries and cardiac valves.
