Synopsis

Handbook of Imaging in Multiple Sclerosis provides an up-to-date introduction into multiple sclerosis disease, including new findings on the pathophysiological processes, the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of the disease. This book includes in-depth chapters exploring the use of conventional and non-conventional imaging methods. These chapters cover magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) specific topics such as measurement of brain atrophy and susceptibility-weighted imaging. Additional chapters explore the use of additional imaging methods such as positron emission tomography (PET), optical coherence tomography (OCT) and high field MRI (use of 7T MRI scanners).

À propos des auteurs

Dejan Jakimovski, MD, Ph.D., is a Research Assistant Professor at the Department of Neurology, University at Buffalo, the State University of New York and Clinical Research Unit Director at Buffalo Neuroimaging Analysis Center. In 2015, Dr. Jakimovski received his medical degree at Ss. Cyril and Methodius University, Skopje, Macedonia and in 2020 he also received Neuroscience Ph.D. degree at University at Buffalo. He performed research spanning from cardiovascular, environmental and genetic risk factors in multiple sclerosis (MS) and use of quantitative multimodal imaging techniques in predicting disease outcomes in MS and other neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, his focus included clinical, neuropsychological and optical coherence tomography (OCT) characterization of both adult and aging MS populations.
