2021 Top Teachers in Head & Neck, Brain and Spine Imaging
2021 Top Teachers in Head & Neck, Brain and Spine Imaging is organized by docmedED.com - Educational Symposia (ESI) ON-DEMAND.
Release Date: September 1, 2021
CME Expiration Date: August 31, 2024
About This CME Teaching Activity:
This CME activity reviews the fundamentals of head & neck, brain and spine imaging, as well as some advanced topics of increasing importance in clinical practice. The head and neck session focus on anatomy, inflammation and neoplasia of the suprahyoid and infrahyoid neck and aerodigestive tract, plus topics in orbital and skull base imaging. Brain lectures include tumors, white matter disease, and both traumatic and non-traumatic emergencies, while spine lectures explain degenerative, neoplastic and traumatic pathology. Each lecture highlights imaging techniques, normal anatomy and common pathology with an emphasis on how the imaging findings directly affect patient management. Frequently missed diagnoses and strategies for error avoidance is also included.
