Radiologist Specializing in Neuroradiology
Neuroradiology is a subspecialty within the field of radiology. A radiologist specializing in neuroradiology deals with diseases and abnormalities of the brain, skull, spine, spinal cord, and the blood vessels (primarily arteries) that supply the central nervous system.
The neuroradiologist uses radiological techniques to produce images for the diagnosis of symptoms. By interpreting these images, the radiologist specializing in neuroradiology can support physicians in other disciplines (e.g., neurologists and orthopedic surgeons).
However, the field of neuroradiology encompasses not only diagnostic imaging but also, increasingly, the interventional, minimally invasive treatment of disorders of the central nervous system (e.g., occlusion of intracranial aneurysms).
Diagnostic Tools in Neuroradiology
A radiologist (specializing in neuroradiology) has the following diagnostic tools at their disposal:
- conventionalX-ray diagnostics,
- computed tomography (CT),
- magneticresonance imaging (MRI),
- angiography (particularly digital subtraction angiography),
- sonography (ultrasound), and
- myelography
are available.
