Hello. My name is Asim Choudhri.
0:03
I'm chief of pediatric neuroradiology
0:05
at Labana Children's Hospital
0:07
in Memphis, Tennessee,
0:08
and the University of Tennessee
0:09
Health Science center.
0:10
In this module, we're going to review
0:12
neurocutaneous syndromes.
0:14
In particular, neurofibromatosis Type 1.
0:17
While neurofibromatosis Type 1
0:19
is a single diagnosis,
0:22
there are a myriad of clinical manifestations.
0:25
Each of which has different
0:26
implications for patient
0:28
management and treatment.
0:30
So, my goal is to help teach you
0:31
not just to recognize that a
0:33
patient has neurofibromatosis Type 1,
0:35
which is likely known before the MRI is performed
0:39
in many cases, but to actually teach you how to
0:42
give a valuable interpretation
0:44
to help guide patient treatment.
