Although many things can go wrong in the brain, this book also shows that our brain is strong. It highlights the key findings that can be seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scans, including those related to normal brain aging and common diseases such as brain infarcts, fractures of the skull as well as fractures and tumors of the vertebral column. It offers insights into brain MRI and CT scans, enabling readers to interpret the key findings.

Dr. Jeroen Hendrikse is professor in radiology with a focus on brain imaging at the University Medical Centre Utrecht, which is the second largest hospital in The Netherlands. He has developed innovative MRI scans to study brain infarcts and the cerebral vasculature. He worked as a researcher at the Johns Hopkins University and received prestigious national and international prizes and grants. He is responsible for the continuous medical educational program for radiologists in the Netherlands. .
