Abstract

Many of the neurocutaneous syndromes are associated with neoplasm, hamartoma, or other abnormal growth. Computer tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, MR neurography, and ultrasound are used to evaluate the alterations. This chapter gives an overview on the application of different imaging techniques for diagnosis of neurofibromatoses including schwannomatosis, tuberous sclerosis, von Hippel-Lindau disease, Sturge-Weber syndrome, ataxia telangiectasia, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, and Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome.
