Content Areas (Codes):
The following Content Areas will be printed on the certificate for this course:
- Neuroradiology
- Pediatric Radiology
Learning Objectives:
- Describe an evaluation pattern for neonatal encephalopathy, neurometabolic disorders and posterior fossa cystic abnormalities in pediatric patients.
- List imaging findings that would suggest cerebellar tonsillar descent is due to intracranial hypotension rather than Chiari malformation.
- List imaging features which predict clinical outcome in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage.
- Develop an evaluation pattern for brain MRI in neonatal encephalopathy.
- Describe imaging patterns of neonatal hypoxic ischemic brain injury.
- Identify clinical and imaging findings suggestive of an inherited neurometabolic disorder.
- Describe the characteristic brain and spine imaging findings in spontaneous intracranial hypotension.
- Describe the characteristic brain imaging findings in Chiari 1 malformation.
- Describe the characteristic brain imaging findings in idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
- Identify key imaging features allowing one to differentiate between these different CSF-related pathologies.
- Recognize causes and mimics of acute subarachnoid hemorrhage.
- Distinguish between etiologies of acute parenchymal hemorrhage.
- Describe the importance of specific imaging features in predicting clinical outcome in various settings of acute hemorrhage.
- Identify common 'blind spots' on cross-sectional imaging of the spine.
- Develop search patterns to detect frequently overlooked spine and paraspinous lesions.
- List five important 'do-not-miss' lesions of the spine.
