Fourteen sessions over two days:

the aim

This is a case-based acute neuroradiology webinar. The most frequently encountered out of hours CT examination is acute CT Head and therefore the course will have an on neuroradiological diagnosis based on CT head interpretation with additional MR follow up where relevant.

 

The focus will go beyond spotting common presentations and diagnosis, to troubleshooting, more subtle diagnosis, common pitfalls and errors. Many general radiologists report out of hours CT head in their routine practice and this course will serve as a useful revision and update to common patterns of disease as well as common practice errors.  This will include pathology recognition, reporting style and content, and very importantly, when to refer.

By the end of the course, the delegate will have:
