MEETING DESCRIPTION:
This course will provide an opportunity for the registrants to analyze cases involving the brain, spine, and head and neck with two of the world's most renowned experts and leading educators in these fields. Registrants will receive advance access to 60 cases with images and study questions to introduce and highlight the various sections covered in this course. In addition to these cases, Dr. Scott W. Atlas and Dr. Peter M. Som will discuss over 500 selected brain, spine, and head and neck cases in this intensive, personalized tutorial, highlighting their approaches to the differential diagnosis of these diseases. Drs. Atlas and Som will also review pertinent normal anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, and imaging concepts. The emphasis will be on a clinically oriented imaging approach that helps refine differential diagnosis.

This is a unique experience for registrants to personally discuss cases with the authors of the preeminent texts books on Neuroradiology and Head and Neck Imaging. The course will encourage an open dialogue with

Drs. Atlas and Som during the case reviews and additional time has been allotted for questions after each session.

This course is designed for neuroradiologists, general radiologists, and clinicians who have an interest in imaging of the brain, spine, and head and neck.

Course Objectives

By the end of this course, participants should be able to:

- Know the imaging anatomy and protocols that are necessary to arrive at a diagnosis of diseases of the central nervous system and the head and neck.
- Develop differential diagnosis that relates to the pertinent imaging and clinically relevant findings for each of the cases covered in this course.
- Improve the imaging skills of the course participants.
- Integrate information presented in this course into efforts to improve the imaging skills of the participants.
