1st North American Workshop on Neuropathology and Epilepsy Surgery
In-Person Event
Apr 27 - 30, 2017
Cleveland, Ohio, USASpeakers
OVERVIEW
1st North American Workshop on Neuropathology and Epilepsy Surgery is organized by Cleveland Clinic Foundation and would be held during Apr 27 - 30, 2017 at The Tudor Arms Hotel Cleveland - A DoubleTree by Hilton, Cleveland, Ohio, United States of America.
The target audience for this medical event for Neurologists and Pathologists. This CME Conference has been approved with a maximum of 25.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Conference Objectives are :
• Discuss diagnostic evaluation of surgical specimens, with particular emphasis on mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis, epilepsy-associated tumors, malformations of cortical development, focal cortical dysplasia, vascular malformations, and encephalitis.
• Disseminate new and upcoming clinico-pathologic classification systems among the neuro-/pathology communities and to validate existing and up-coming consensus classification systems by a larger cohort of practicing neuro-/pathologists.
• Recognize and classify various histopathological substrates of pharmacoresistant epilepsy.
The 1st North American Workshop on Neuropathology and Epilepsy Surgery will enable participants to better recognize and classify various histopathological substrates of pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Reliable neuropathological work-up of epilepsy-associated brain lesions represents an important diagnostic value for the surgical management of patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy. The workshop has been held in Germany, Brazil and China since 2013, with the endorsement of the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE).
Topics related to the diagnosis and treatment of human focal epilepsies will be presented by internationally renowned faculty. Advanced hands-on histopathology training will be offered in small groups led by distinguished tutors who will review and discuss microscopy slides of selected cases with different staining protocols. Participants will also have the opportunity to present their own cases for discussion with the entire group.
Price :
Physicians and PhDs : USD 795.00
Residents and Fellows : USD 395.00
Speakers : Ingmar Blumcke MD, Imad Najm MD, Arie Perry MD, Harvey Sarnat MD, Maria Thom MD, Christopher Walsh MD PhD
