Case-based Review of Neuroradiology (2024)-MSCN2220-2024

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The RSNA 2020 neuroradiology course covered a range of complex topics, focusing on both adult and interventional neuroradiology. Directed by Amy Giuliano and featuring distinguished faculty, the sessions included reviews of various case studies.<br /><br />Dr. Nickerson started by discussing cases like Wernicke’s encephalopathy and multisystem atrophy, highlighting their characteristic imaging features and diagnostic clues. He demonstrated how bilateral and symmetric manifestations often hint at metabolic issues.<br /><br />Dr. Amrine presented spine-related cases, emphasizing the importance of recognizing conditions such as epidural hematoma and sequestrations in disc extrusions while highlighting the need for comprehensive assessments using multiple imaging techniques.<br /><br />Dr. Glastonbury covered head and neck cases, illustrating how careful analysis of anatomical features and potential malignancies is crucial in differential diagnosis. Specific examples included sinonasal carcinoma and inverted papillomas, emphasizing the role of CT and MRI in identifying key structural changes.<br /><br />Dr. Milburn addressed interventional neuroradiology, discussing complications like carotid web formations leading to strokes, and showcased how angiography aids in diagnosis and subsequent treatments of vascular anomalies and conditions such as carotid pseudoaneurysms.<br /><br />Overall, the course provided in-depth insights into diagnosing and managing complex neuroradiology cases, with a strong focus on interpreting imaging results to guide clinical decision-making.
