Summary

This is the first reference and textbook to discuss the exciting and very promising new MRI technique called Susceptibility Weighted Imaging or SWI, which is a powerful tool for the diagnosis and treatment of acute stroke, allowing earlier detection of acute stroke hemorrhage and easier detection of microbleeds in acute ischemia. Edited by the originators of SWI with contributions from the top leaders in the science and use of the modality.
