About this event
- Date and time Tue 8 Feb 2022 from 10:25am to 4:15pm
- Location Online
- Organised by Radiology
This educational webinar seeks to demonstrate how best to image a patient with dementia. Join us to improve your knowledge in the reporting of both anatomical (CT and MRI) and functional (PET CT and ECT) imaging studies performed to diagnose dementia.
We will also cover all the main anatomical and functional modalities. Experienced clinicians will also be giving clinical context throughout.
During this session, participants can expect to:
- Improve understanding of the role imaging has in the diagnosis of dementia
- Know the indication for both anatomical and functional imaging studies in the diagnosis of dementia
- Be able to interpret dementia imaging studies more proficiently
- Understand the multidisciplinary nature of dementia management
- Consider how to be able to establish or improve a dementia imaging service
This webinar is available for on-demand viewing. The webinar recording will be available for registered delegates up to 60 days after the live webinar broadcast via Zoom.
