La Risonanza Magnetica (RM) si affianca alla Tomografia Computerizzata (TC) come metodica non invasiva di elevato valore diagnostico. Tenendo conto che attualmente la MRI è certamente una delle tecnologie a costo più elevato, gli Autori passano in rassegna i principali problemi diagnostici in campo neuroradiologico, evidenziando quale sia l'apporto delle due metodiche, nel tentativo di pervenire ad una applicazione razionale nei singoli casi. Viene evidenziato il sinergismo diagnostico CT/MRI sia a livello cranio-encefalico che spinale.
