Imaging of the pineal region and spine: self-assessment module.
The educational objectives for this self-assessment module on imaging of the pineal region and spine are for the participant to exercise, self-assess, and improve his or her understanding of the evaluation of patients with brain tumors, particularly solid masses of the pineal region; gain familiarity with the clinical entity of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and its radiologic appearance; and gain familiarity with the clinical entity of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) and its radiologic appearance.
