Neuroradiology Review

The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
Course Directors: David Yousem, MD, MBA and Doris Lin, MD, PhD

Maintaining certification requires not only medical knowledge to deliver quality care but also other essential elements that must be developed and maintained throughout every radiologist’s career. Therefore, this program serves as a comprehensive review of neuro-radiology and prepares the participants to tackle imaging of the brain, spine, head and neck, as well as the vascular anatomy of the central nervous system.

It is conducted in the form of didactic lectures, supplemented with case reviews, by experts in the field. The overall emphasis is on practical knowledge, specifically in preparation for maintenance of certification requirements for radiologists and subspecialty certification in neuroradiology. In addition, advanced imaging techniques and applications are presented to acquaint all participants with the state-of-the-art developments in the field of radiological science.
