Pediatric Neuroradiology can be a source of anxiety for many physicians. Many of the diagnoses associated with supratentorial malformation can sound similar, especially if you don’t encounter them on a daily basis. When you do encounter them you want to appropriately characterize image findings to provide the best level of care for the patient and their family. 

In this course, Dr. Asim Choudhri provides a case-based review of Congenital Supratentorial Malformations, including the types of variations that you see in real life, from mild cases to severe cases. In addition, he showcases how to utilize all images provided to describe these abnormalities and make confident diagnoses.

Using our DICOM viewer, review cases alongside Dr. Choudhri as he demonstrates using pediatric brain MRI and Ultrasound to describe pediatric brain anatomy, suggests helpful reporting, and provides concise clinical pearls.

This course will prepare you to confidently and efficiently identify Congenital Supratentorial Malformations through case reviews of diagnoses including: 

• Gray matter heterotopia
• Holoprosencephaly (HPE) – alobar holoprosencephaly, semilobar holoprosencephaly, and lobar holoprosencephaly
• Septo-optic dysplasia (SOD)
• Bilateral perisylvian polymicrogyria
• The lissencephaly-pachygyria spectrum
• Syntelencephaly
• Hemimegalencephaly
• …and more!

Optimize your learning:

• Review at your own pace – Reminder to utilize the video player features to speed up or slow down the video, pause or rewind to best fit your available time and learning needs.
• Read alongside Dr. Choudhri – Keep the DICOM study open while you watch Dr. Choudhri review the cases. We suggest popping the DICOM viewer open in a new window and viewing side by side with the video on your screen.
