Neuroradiology Workshop for Neurosurgeons
Delegates each have a desktop radiology workstation, which contains a database of intracranial neuroradiology images. The software used simulates how a clinician would view images at work and this software is officially used by the Royal College of Radiologists to conduct their examinations.
An interactive approach is used via case-based learning with discussion of the images, how different imaging modalities can be applied for the management of patients followed by the neurosurgical approach to correlate with the imaging. Learning points will be reinforced with bite size powerpoint presentations during the sessions. There is no didactic lecture based teaching. There is a drinks reception included.

Course Objectives
- To understand the fundamentals of current neuroimaging techniques.
- The role imaging plays in assisting neurosurgeons in diagnosis and surgical planning of common intracranial and spinal pathologies.
- To inform and improve the day to day working neuroradiology knowledge of neurosurgeons.
