On-call Radiology - Advanced Stroke Imaging CME
About this module ( 5 cases to practice) :
Stroke remains one of the most common indications of brain imaging. Although the initial diagnosis of acute stroke is clinical, imaging has become an integral part of stroke management. It is required to rule out a contraindication for thrombolysis, in particular, to differentiation cerebral infarction form haemorrhage. With the advances in stroke management, imaging is now necessary to delineate the extent of the stroke, and its complications and to exclude other conditions which may mimic the presentation of stroke. Imaging has expanded with immediate stroke follow-up and where sophisticated endovascular intervention is available.
The cases are more complicated and less common. We also added additional investigations required to reach a final diagnosis. But some cases are hard enough and a differential diagnosis is warranted. Although the module is based on our On-call exposure to patients with a diagnosis of acute stroke, some cases will show the different stages of stroke progression.
The module is designed as an educational exercise rather than a test of knowledge. For this reason, a reference is added with every case as additional reading material.
