Through the efforts of the American Society of Neuroradiology and the NER Foundation, we are pleased to introduce this new educational forum to the membership of the Society. Unrestricted access to this new service may be obtained by logging onto the ASNR and the NER Foundation websites. In keeping with the current demand for electronic education of clinically relevant topics, Neurographics offers short reviews that emphasize a pictorial approach. This new site initially will display selected award-winning exhibits presented at the annual ASNR meeting. Although we will begin modestly, we expect that in keeping with the demand for electronic education, Neurographics will grow to be a popular site for the dissemination of information and exchange of ideas.

    We encourage your comments concerning the usefulness of Neurographics in your clinical practice. It is the intent of the NER Foundation and of the Executive Committee of the ASNR to search for a full-time editor for Neurographics in the near future. As we grow, we will develop a structured approach to the selection of exhibits that will the posted on the Neurographics website. At present, your interim editors have contacted and will continue to contact the authors of those scientific exhibits which they feel will be of greatest benefit to our members.

     Neurographics has been brought to fruition by the effort of many individuals who wished to see the excellent material presented as exhibits at the ASNR made widely available.
