MRI of the pituitary gland
MRI of the pituitary gland[electronic resource] /by Jean-Francois Bonneville ... [et al.]. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2016. - xv, 397 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm.

Normal Radioanatomy and Variants from Normal -- Rathke Cleft Cyst -- Non Secreting Pituitary Adenomas -- Acromegaly -- Cushing Disease -- Prolactinomas -- Other Lesions of the Sellar Area -- Incidentalomas -- Hypophysitis and Non Tumoral Diseases -- Diabetes Insipidus -- Post Surgical Pattern.

This clinically oriented book will familiarize the reader with all aspects of the diagnosis of tumors and other disorders of the pituitary gland by means of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) The coverage includes acromegaly, Cushing's disease, Rathke cleft cysts, prolactinomas, incidentalomas, nonsecreting adenomas, other lesions of the sellar area, hypophysitis, and central diabetes insipidus. Normal radiologic anatomy and the numerous normal variants are described, and guidance is also provided on difficulties, artifacts, and other pitfalls. The book combines concise text and high-quality images with a question and answer format geared toward the needs of the practitioner. MRI is today considered the cornerstone in the diagnosis of diseases of the hypophyseal-hypothalamic region but the relatively small size of the pituitary gland, its deep location, the many normal anatomic variants, and the often tiny size of lesions can hinder precise evaluation of the anatomic structures and particularly the pituitary gland itself. Radiologists and endocrinologists will find MRI of the Pituitary Gland to be full of helpful information on this essential examination, and the book will also be of interest to internists and neurosurgeons.
