This 6-hour course is an intense review of advanced neuroimaging, primarily focusing on magnetic resonance imaging.  Computed tomography, spinal radiography, myelography, and clinical cases are incorporated into the course. Important points of physics and disease syndromes will be emphasized.  

 By the end of this course you will:  

• Understand basic and advanced MRI sequences, artifacts, and how to correct them
• Have a basic understanding of MRI of common intracranial pathologies
• Have a basic understanding of MRI of common spinal pathologies
• Have a basic understanding of the role of survey radiography, myelography and CT in veterinary neuroimaging

Live Q&A with Presenters 

The Live Q&A with the Advanced Diagnostic Imaging Presenters session was hosted and recorded on Monday, August 24, 2020 and is available as a supplemental module. 

RACE Application Status:  

This program has been approved for 6.0 total hours of continuing education credit in jurisdictions which recognize AAVSB RACE-approval. Participants should be aware that some boards have limitations on the number of hours accepted in certain categories and/or restrictions on certain methods of delivery of continuing education.

This 6.5-hour course is designed to offer an intense, high-level review of clinical veterinary electrophysiology and electrodiagnostic testing aimed at the neurology resident.  Topics will include brainstem auditory evoked responses, electromyography, nerve conduction studies, evaluation of the neuromuscular junction, and electroencephalography.   

By the end of this course you will:  

• Have an understanding of electrophysiologic theory
• Have a basic overview of electrodiagnostic testing for neurological disorders
• Have a basic understanding of diagnostic testing for neuromuscular disorder

This 7-hour course provides an intense overview of veterinary neuropathology.  There will be a focus on CNS neoplasia, as well as spinal cord pathology.  

By the end of this course you will:  

• Obtain working knowledge of the patterns of disease of neoplasia, infections, and degenerative diseases affecting the central nervous system of domestic animals.
• Become familiar with the histopathology of common diseases of the central nervous system of domestic animals.
