Neuro Imaging Made Easy with Transcranial Duplex Ultrasound
Transcranial color-coded duplex sonography (TCCD) and TCS/TCD (transcranial B-mode sonography) are not the first diagnostic tools to be chosen for an intracranial vessel analysis in acute stroke or early diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, this non-invasive way of high-resolution imaging is a preferred method to follow vascular pathologies, access cerebral hemodynamics and visualise the substantia nigra. This webinar has a strong focus on scanning, where you will be shown how relatively easy you can start with transcranial duplex sonography of vessels and brain structures, accompanied by a lecture on the clinical background.
This educational talk offers 1 CPD credit.
