Abstract

Neuroradiology is a part of general radiology that is dedicated to the diagnostic examination of the brain and spinal cord. The history of neuroradiology, as a whole, reflects the history of radiology development. The birthday of radiology could be considered as 8 November 1895; it was on this day that W. K. Roentgen was experimenting with a cathode tube and discovered a new type of radiation (emission) with high penetrating capacity. Eventually he named this new type of radiation the “X-ray”.
