Description:

Explore Key Topics in Neuro and Musculoskeletal Imaging

This course provides an update on the fundamentals of neuroradiology and musculoskeletal imaging. UCSF Neuro and Musculoskeletal Imaging includes case-based lectures on topics like the latest strategies for imaging of the peripheral nervous system, stroke and other neurologic emergencies, routine head and neck abnormalities, new metal reduction sequences for MRI, diagnostic approaches to wrist pain, etc. It will help you to:

• Refine imaging protocols for brain, head and neck, spine, nerve and musculoskeletal CT/MR imaging
• Implement newer MR sequences like 3D volumetric imaging and metal suppression techniques
• Discuss approaches for evaluation of common and uncommon abnormalities in neck and spine
• Attain the latest knowledge on MR arthrographic technique and findings
• Identify key imaging characteristics of bone tumors

Expand Your Skills

A comprehensive clinical update, this learn-at-your-own-pace course in neuro and musculoskeletal imaging provides a maximum of 19.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits ™ that can be used toward the ABR’s MOC Part II requirements. Available online, it provides access to unbiased, evidence-based content and case-based reviews so you can expand your knowledge and incorporate the latest guidelines into your daily practice.

Learning Objectives

After viewing this activity, participants will demonstrate the ability to:

• Apply their acquired knowledge to improve imaging protocols for brain, head & neck, spine, nerve and musculoskeletal CT/MR imaging
• Recognize specific imaging features of infection and tumors in the head, neck, spine and peripheral nerves
• Distinguish between normal anatomy, common anatomic variants and pathological disorders related to MRI of the major musculoskeletal joints, brain, head, neck and spine
• Recognize internal derangement appearances of the knee, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, and foot
• Implement newer MR sequences such as 3D volumetric imaging and metal suppression techniques
• Update knowledge about MR arthrographic technique and findings
• Sharpen evaluation of muscle and tendon abnormalities
• Identify important imaging characteristics of bone tumors
• Realize various abnormalities that simulate musculoskeletal tumors
• Appreciate advances in stroke management and their impact on imaging
• Develop strategies for evaluating common and uncommon abnormalities in the neck and spine

Intended Audience

This educational activity was designed for radiologists, neurologists, orthopaedists, and other medical professionals who will benefit from a greater understanding of neuro and musculoskeletal imaging.
