MRIOnline MRI Mastery Series: Nerve Imaging – Entrapment Neuropathy and Tumor Imaging of Nerves 2021 (CME VIDEOS)
In this course, Dr. Megan Mills focuses on MRI of nerve pathology with a focus on the upper extremity. The course begins with general MRI protocol of these cases. Followed by looking at the different phases of denervation and then patterns of muscle denervation. Also covered in this course is the anatomy of the nerve pathways as well as a review of a series of nerve imaging cases including impingement syndromes, traumatic injuries, infectious and inflammatory conditions, and tumors.
After completing this course, you will be better able to:
- Apply appropriate search patterns to ensure high quality case assessment
- Identify key anatomical landmarks, variations, and abnormalities on imaging
- Accurately interpret advanced imaging cases
- Formulate definitive diagnoses and limited differentials
