Course Description

Stay sharp with your skills by taking advantage of our Practice Cases, where you can tackle the same challenging scenarios as the assessments and further refine your reading and interpretation abilities!

These are the same interesting Brain CT and MRI cases that you reviewed in the assessments. After each case quiz, you’ll be provided with your case review time, the correct diagnosis, and a gold standard case report. Dr. Yousem has also provided several video case reviews for you to watch and learn how he approaches these cases.

Each case includes:

  • Patient history 

  • DICOM study you can scroll through in our diagnostic web viewer

  • Timed case review assessment

  • Diagnosis and findings assessment

  • Gold Standard Case report

  • Additional learning materials

The Brain Imaging Case Challenge was developed by David M Yousem, MBA, MD and co-contributor, Faranak Rafiee, MD.

You’ve already earned CME credit for these case reviews, therefore this course is not eligible for additional CME credit.
