Learning objectives
Computerised Tomography (CT) & Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are the preferred neuro-imaging modalities in investigation of seizure disorders.
Accurate interpretation of CT & MRI examinations of brain requires an indepth understanding of various patterns of presentation of Cerebral Hemiatrophy associated with seizure disorders and their characteristic radiological features.
We propose to attend the following objectives-
- To illustrate the diverse spectrum of pathologic conditions which commonly cause cerebral hemiatrophy.
- To elucidate characteristic radiological findings in various conditions causing cerebral hemiatrophy for the establishment of diagnosis and assessing the type of lesion.
- To aid etiological stratification of diverse conditions causing cerebral hemiatrophy which is further imperative for choosing therapeutic modalities such as surgical intervention or medical treatment.
