Biography
ANDREI I. HOLODNY is Professor of Radiology at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University and Attending Neuroradiologist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, USA. He is the Chief of the Neuroradiology Section and Director of the Functional MRI Laboratory at Memorial Sloan-Kettering. Dr. Holodny is the Founding President of the American Society of Functional Neuroradiology and past-President of the Eastern Neuroradiological Society. Dr. Holodny’s studies concentrate principally on functional imaging of central nervous system tumors including blood oxygen level dependent functional MRI and diffusion tractography.
"There are 29 authors and 18 chapters in this 352-page book, and, although a major emphasis is placed on cortical activation (what many primarily think of when functional imaging is mentioned), the latter half of the book is concerned with diffusion imaging and its derivatives, perfusion images and the metrics derived from such studies, and magnetoencephalography."
"The book is written for the clinical neuroradiologist, and, aside from some scary-looking formulas and mathematics in the perfusion chapter, the book holds true to that promise."
"In summary, this book is a winner and puts the current state of clinical functional neuroimaging under 1 cover....Functional Neuroimaging is highly recommended to all practicing neuroradiologists and trainees in neuroradiology fellowship programs."
