An educational youtube channel dedicated to Neuroradiology.
My name is Sven. I'm a 40-year old Neuroradiologist from Belgium and I love teaching and I love neuroradiology. This channel combines both these passions. My teaching is philosophy is "try to keep it simple" and "I wish someone would have told me this when I was a resident". I work in a teaching hospital and I want to teach my assistants / registrars / residents as much as i can during the short time they rotate at out department. I try to do the same in these videos.
I'm always open to feedback and constructive criticism. I'm not perfect and neither are these videos. If you have any comments, questions or feedback, just let me know. If you have any requests for future videos, I'm always open to suggestions.
Hope you enjoy this channel. If you're here, it means you're passionate about Neuroradiology. I hope these videos only strenghten that passion :).
This is the first time as a junior Dr I have come across a video that has broken down the concepts on how to interpret radiological images. Thank you very much and please can you do a small tutorial on how to read strokes in these various formats.
I am a neurology resident (University hospital in Linköping, Sweden) doing my rotation in neuroradiology rotation. I found your videos and i am loving your work! Such a simple and very well structured way of learning. I am recommending your work to my peers and they are loving it! Keep upp the good work!
I see many people say MRI physics is hard and they barely passed , if most of them aren’t really understanding physics but still go on to become MRI techs , how important is MRI physics ?
You can become a good radiologist or MRI tech without knowing or understanding MRI physics. To be able to provide that little extra however, I believe an understanding of what you are dealing with is necessary. Quality issues, like improving the quality of your sequences, requires a basic understandig of those aspects that determine image quality, and those are hard to grasp if you have no basic understanding of MRI physics. So in short: you're right, you don't really have to know or understand MRI physics to push the button (to put it a bit disrespectfully) or look at the images, but I think it's cool to understand it and understanding (even basic) MRI physcis with opens the way of "playing" with your sequences and images, both as a radiologist and as an MRI tech. And in the end, don't we all want a job that feels like fun and play?
I would if I knew anything about it, but I don't and it's something I rarely encounter in my own clinical practice, so sorry, but I just don't know enough about it!
Thank you so much for the clear explanation! The images and drawings were extremely helpful. I usually struggle with anatomy, but this video truly gave me an 'aha' moment. 😄
Question, newly appeared 9mm pineal cyst has appeared from 8/2022 to now. I did not have it prior , i had MRIs the same year that showed no cyst. Question is: is this 9mm considered large ?
Hi, I have a question regarding the carotis stenosis case (starting at 8:16): Why is the hypoperfusion most severe in the posterior watershed area between MCA und PCA? As we have a stenosis in the ICA, we should expect that the PCA (which originates from the basilar artery) still works fine. Therefore, blood should still reach the posterior watershed area and it should not be the area with the worst perfusion in the brain. Instead I would expect the anterior watershed area between ACA and MCA to be hypoperfused first. Am I making a mistake here? Anyway, thank you very much for this great video series!
