Things to do in San Antonio

This course has been developed to reignite the passions of neuroradiology and musculoskeletal diagnostic and interventional radiologists, and to stir the fire within general radiologists striving to expand their neuro and MSK skills. The symposium brings together nationally and internationally renowned speakers who are experts in the fields of neuroradiology, musculoskeletal radiology, and interventional pain medicine. The course will revalidate some established concepts and imaging parameters but overturn others by presenting new up-to-date information. Through this course the attendees will review normal neuro and MSK anatomy and the imaging of pathophysiology affecting adults and children. Complex metabolic bone and neuro pathology will be dissected into more easily recognizable patterns. The attendees will be exposed to panel discussions, where imaging of spine and MSK diseases will be presented side by side with treatment options. Neoplastic and inflammatory neuro and MSK processes will be reviewed. Time will be dedicated to currently-pressing topics such as dementia, regenerative medicine, and both the diagnosis and treatment of acute stroke. All imaging modalities, ranging from plain films to nuclear medicine studies, will be included. A two hour hands-on MSK/US workshop will be an interactive part of the course.
