Clearly structured, each chapter describes: * clinical features and laboratory investigations * pathology * pathogenetic considerations * therapy * case presentation * MRI and spectroscopy of a specific myelin disorder Completely updated and expanded by 20 chapters to include the latest information on: - inborn errors of metabolism and neurodegenerative disorders - the role of subcellular structures - enzyme biochemistry - the pathophysiological mechanisms of posthypoxic-ischemic cerebral damage - inflammatory and infectious disorders Plus: Greater coverage of the genetic and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying white matter disorders. Finally: 250 high-quality illustrations depict rare disorders which previously were only described.

This is the second, completely rewritten edition of the widely acclaimed book on MR of myelin, myelination and myelin disorders (1989). In the last five years many new data became available with regard to genetics, molecular biology, the role of cellular substructures on one side and on the other side regarding the growing experience with MR patterns of less common myelin disorders. Not only, therefore, the text has been updated, but many new chapters have been added on disorders of which previously the white matter involvement was less clear. The acquired myelin disorders were reorganized and their backgrounds were more extensively elucidated, to place the MR examinations in the clinical context where they belong.
