CT-Based Stroke Neuroradiology Fellowship

CT-Based Stroke Neuroradiology Fellowship is organized by Unilabs Academy and will be held from Dec 14 - 16, 2026.

Description:
The fellowship will cover the entire field of CT-based stroke imaging, including NCCT, CTA and CTP. Emphasis will be on the combined utilization of NCCT, CTA and CTP in a comprehensive stroke imaging package for ischemic stroke and NCCT and CTA for hemorrhagic stroke.

The area will be illustrated by a number of illustrative cases, highlighting the combined utilization of NCCT, CTA and CTP and addressing some clinical challenges in stroke imaging including rare causes of stroke as well as some of the most important differential diagnosis and pitfalls. Vascular anatomy and physiology will be included when necessary to understand the implications on imaging and vice versa.

Selected topics will be presented in a lecture format, as well as by representative cases on different level of complexity intend to illustrate some of the challenges in the field - participants will review the images, first by themselves and then together with the mentor and the group.

The aim is to reproduce the reading room experience, simulating and condensing full-length neuroradiology fellowship programs.

Unilabs Academy online radiology courses are held in a virtual classroom on Zoom. Participants are encouraged to engage in discussions making use of their camera and microphone to recreate the face-to-face experience. In this small group environment among your peers, you are free to ask questions, make mistakes, and learn together with the support of Dr. Wasselius. Live sessions are recorded so you can review them on your own time following the training.

This radiology course is organised by TMC Academy, a European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME) Trusted Provider.

An application has been made to the UEMS/EBR for CME accreditation for this event.

Learning Objectives:

• Designing a modern CT-based stroke imaging protocol
• Interpretation of NCCT and CTA in stroke patients
• Understanding of the physiological foundation of CTP and interpretation of CTP in stroke patients
• Typical imaging findings, differential diagnosis and diagnostic pitfalls in stroke imaging

Programme will include

• Lectures on reading NCCT, CTA and CTP in stroke patients and its implications for clinical treatment and prognosis
• Individual reporting on selected cases in PACS viewer with supervision/ immediate feedback by the radiologist mentor
• Clinical cases at different levels of complexity
• Group case discussion
• Access to all course materials via the Unilabs Academy radiology training platform, including discussed cases
• Daily lunches and coffee breaks with your peers and radiologist mentor
• Plenty of time for Q&A with the specialised radiologist mentor
• CME Certificate

Level
Level III - Subspecialisation training
This fellowship is ideal for neuroradiology fellows as well as suitable for general radiologists reporting neuroradiology cases or interested in embarking on a neuroradiology sub-specialised path.
