Abstract

Since the publication of the book titled “Neuroophtalmology” in 1996, the development of CT and MRI and PET techniques are the most relevant to follow up in neuroradiology. The reason is that these modalities, as well as their advanced imaging methods are widely available. Therefore the structure of this chapter will follow technical considerations. Radiologists often use new terms, and getting familiar with those is essential to fully understand the reports.
