Is your ability to remember temporal lobe anatomy temporary? You can see it best on coronal images   Centrally in the temporal lobe is the old allocortex (hippocampus, etc) that is preserved going back to rats Laterally is the neocortex involved in the newer higher functions

Anyone can see the bright spot of diffusion imaging! What sets you apart is your ability to tell them where it is—what vascular territory Here are the vascular territories you need to know: * Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery (PICA) Soft under surface of the cerebellum *

This assault on science is preposterous and sad. It is misplaced politics, injurious to our national interest. We all have a stake in cancer research, antibiotic research, quantum physics, jet engine material science, and so on. These indiscriminate cuts are unlawful and foolish.

l've got your back — literally! A solid grasp of lumbar spine anatomy is essential to be able to find pathology and be accurate in reporting. You need to know where the nerve roots lie in the central canal and neural foramina to know when they are compressed. And you need to

Time for you to meet your match!   T2/FLAIR mismatch sign in brain tumors can be very helpful.   But do you know how to use it?   Or do you go into a coma reading studies on gliomas?   Here’s what you need to know so you will never be overmatched when it comes to T2/FLAIR

The current attack of the US government is devastating. The internationals in my lab are asking can I come to work today ? I told them NO because I’m afraid government officials will come to arrest them - those are LEGAL international scientists that just lost their visas due to
