Weekend Update: Neurosurgery is organized by American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) and would be held during Dec 01 - 03, 2017 at Hilton Americas-Houston, Houston, Texas, United States Of America.

The target audience for this medical event for neurosurgeons interested in clinical updates and self-assessment and for those looking to have a weekend update on neurological surgery. This CME Conference has been approved with a maximum of 16.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Course Description :
The course is divided into two distinct aspects: an online portion you can review at your leisure consisting of 9.75 CME credits augmented by a live course that will reinforce concepts with associated cases and offers 16.5 CME credits. The online pre-course material provides an excellent opportunity to refresh your knowledge of various aspects of neurological surgery not present in your daily practice with the ability to do so at your own pace.

The online portion is further enhanced by the live high-paced, focused, case-based interactive weekend session. The use of an interactive audience-response system (ARS) allows participants to submit their responses to clinical questions and view the most popular peer responses in real time. At the conclusion of the review, participants receive a personalized digital summary of responses to each clinical scenario. This valuable resource identifies areas of strength as well as areas that may require additional focus of study.

This course offers useful takeaways by way of self-assessment and personalized study with more than 100 cases that run the gamut of neurosurgical topics.

Conference Objectives are :
• Describe current treatment concepts and management strategies for the broad spectrum of neurological surgery.
• Assess one's clinical knowledge in comparison to fellow neurosurgeons.
• Design a personalized study guide for life-long learning.
• Discuss patient care updates from recent clinical trials.
