The target audience for this medical event is physicians who supervise and interpret neurological MRI studies. This CME activity should also be useful for referring physicians who order these studies so that they might gain a greater appreciation of the strengths and limitations of clinically relevant neuroradiology. MR Technologists should also find this program beneficial.

Meeting Accreditation:
Physicians: Educational Symposia is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Educational Symposia designates this live activity for a maximum of 12.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)TM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Course Description :
This symposium provides a practical, comprehensive review of the important aspects of clinical MRI/MRA of the head & spine. Physicians and technologists practicing neuroradiography utilizing MRI should expand their knowledge base and obtain additional information on safe and efficient scanning protocols. New this year is a focused session on Artificial Intelligence and Cultural Change in Diagnostic Imaging. This special session is designed to help you improve your practice and the overall patient experience.

Educational Objectives:
• Optimize imaging protocols and techniques to effectively assess CNS pathology.
• Effectively assess cerebral hemorrhage, the temporal bone, neurodegenerative disorders and CNS infections.
• Discuss the expanded role of MRI/MRA of the brain and spine.
• Review and recognize the diverse pathology that affects the spine, including congenital, degenerative, demyelinating, inflammatory, traumatic, and vascular conditions.
• Describe evolving MRI applications and techniques used to evaluate the brain and spine.

No special educational preparation is required for this CME activity.
