Ophthalmologists are often the first clinicians to evaluate a patient harboring an underlying intraorbital or intracranial structural lesion. This unique position makes it particularly important for them to understand the basic mechanics, indications, and contraindications for the available orbital and neuroimaging studies (e.g., CT and MR imaging), as well as any special studies that may be necessary to fully evaluate the suspected pathology. It is equally important for them to be able to communicate their imaging questions and provide relevant clinical information to the interpreting radiologist.
ALL TESTS CAN BE TAKEN ONLINE
No matter which type of course you purchase, (complete course, download test, fax or online) you can take your test through our on-line testing site.
If you order any of the "Test Only" options, it DOES NOT INCLUDE THE BOOK.
On completion of this course the participant should be able to:
1. Explain why only protons are used to produce MRI scans.
2. List four factors that determine the appearance of MRI images.
3. Define “anthropologic baseline” as it relates to Reid’s anatomic baseline.
4. Name three advantages of MRA over CTA.
5. Give an example where CT is better for obtaining a diagnosis of the orbit and brain.
