Imaging in dementia is a hot topic. Activity is expanding as part of evolving practice and initiatives to improve early diagnosis and management of dementia, and technological advances allow increasingly specific and sensitive detection of underlying neurodegenerative diseases.
By bringing together expert speakers within the field, this one-day event will provide an overview of contemporary imaging in the diagnosis and management of dementia, including imaging in clinical trials.
Educational aims and objectives:
• To familiarise delegates with appropriate structural and functional imaging methods for investigation of dementia
• To familiarise delegates with typical imaging appearances in common dementias
• To update delegates on recent advances in specific PET tracers in dementia
• To provide practical strategies for dementia imaging
• To provide an understanding of the role of imaging in clinical pathways and therapeutic trials
