Prof. Dr. med. Horst Urbach
Department of Adult and Pediatric Neuroradiology
Specialized in: adult and pediatric neuroradiology About the Department of Adult and Pediatric Neuroradiology at University Hospital Freiburg
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Neuroradiology offers the full range of imaging diagnostics and minimally invasive therapy for diseases of the brain and spinal cord, neuromuscular pathology, etc. The department is equipped with the state-of-art CT and MRI systems for the most accurate imaging of anatomical structures, as well as the examination of cerebral blood flow, metabolic processes, brain functions, etc. The priorities of the department are the interventional neuroradiology, epilepsy diagnostics, and imaging diagnostics of neurological diseases in children. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Horst Urbach.
The service range of the department includes:
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnostics of head diseases, including pathologies of the brain, spine, spinal cord and peripheral nervous system
- Standard neuroradiological diagnostics (for epilepsy diagnostics and pathological changes associated with it, dynamic blood flow imaging, as well as for anatomical and functional imaging of special brain areas and peripheral nerves during preoperative neurosurgical planning (functional MRI and tractography))
- Acute stroke diagnostics
- Diagnostics of neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease)
- Specially adapted MRI examinations in children (in collaboration with the Department of Neuropediatrics and Muscular Diseases)
- Computed tomography (CT)
- Stroke diagnostics
- Diagnostics of brain tumors and herniated spinal discs
- Imaging of the arteries and veins in the neck and brain (for example, in order to detect aneurysms or artery stenosis)
- Myelography (X-ray method for the examination of the spine and spinal cord structures, which involves injection of a radiopaque substance into the spinal canal)
- Angiography of cerebral vessels (invasive contrast-enhanced examination method), for example, for the detection of aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations and fistulas
- Treatment of arteriovenous malformations
- Microsurgical removal
- Stereotactic radiotherapy
- Other diagnostic and therapeutic options
