Osborn's Brain: Imaging, Pathology, and Anatomy is the successor to Dr. Osborn's 1993 book Diagnostic Radiology, known in some neuroradiology circles as 'The Red Book." This volume is presented as a comprehensive neuropathology and neuroradiology learning curriculum, written in prose to convey the reasoning behind the conclusions she sets forth. Neuro-ophthalmologists will likely find this text to be a helpful reference or primary study source.The text comprises 41 chapters grouped into six larger sections: Trauma; Nontraumatic Hemorrhage and Vascular Lesions; Infection, Inflammation, and Demyelinating Diseases; Neoplasms, Cysts, and Tumor-like Lesions; Toxic, Metabolic, Degenerative, and CSF Disorders; and Congenital Malformations of the Skull and Brain. Each section begins with an introductory chapter, giving important anatomical insights and describing a general approach to the section's content. Following this, individual pathologies are covered systematically with consistent subheadings of Terminology, Etiology, Pathology, Clinical Issues, Imaging, and Differential Diagnosis. Salient teaching points are summarized in boxes of bullet point-formatted content.
