Nice, France
June 8, 2008
A satellite symposium held during the 18th ENS (European Neurological Society) Meeting
The aim of the symposium is to present and discuss the latest achievements in the pathogenetic mechanisms of neurological damage that lead to dementias. Examinations evaluating function and anatomical changes related to the dementias will also be covered.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of this symposium participants will have:
- Acquired updates on the use of functional MRI in the diagnosis of dementias.
- Learned about criteria to measure atrophy and other anatomical changes found in dementia.
- Gained knowledge on procedures and criteria for analysis of electrophysiological examinations used in patients with dementia.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Scientists, clinicians, biologists, working in the field of neurology, will benefit from this symposium.
Serono Symposia International Foundation (www.seronosymposia.org) will submit this program “Pathophysiology and diagnosis of dementias: role of functional and structural techniques” (June 8, 2008 – Nice, France) for accreditation by the Royal College of Physician, London, UK and the Italian Ministry of Health.
