Pictorial review of glutamate excitotoxicity: fundamental concepts for neuroimaging.

Neuroradiologists may encounter, on a daily basis, a challenging diversity of neurologic disorders, including stroke, trauma, epilepsy, and even neurodegenerative conditions, such as Huntington disease, AIDS dementia complex, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [(1)][1], but this spectrum of disease
