Neuroanatomy Through Imaging Simulation

Training Overview

Neuroanatomy Through Imaging Simulation Training is an immersive, simulation-based educational program designed for neuroradiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and imaging specialists aiming to master the structural and functional organization of the human brain using advanced MRI visualization tools. This two-day course combines theoretical instruction with practical, simulation-driven exercises that bridge classical neuroanatomy and modern neuroimaging interpretation.

The program begins with a systematic review of brain anatomy—including cortical, subcortical, and brainstem structures—using high-resolution MRI datasets. Participants interact with 3D brain models, explore anatomical relationships across multiple planes, and practice identifying key landmarks relevant to clinical and surgical planning.

Hands-on sessions allow participants to manipulate diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography and functional MRI (fMRI) maps to understand white matter pathways and brain connectivity. The simulation modules replicate real-world neuroimaging scenarios, fostering active learning through guided case analysis and spatial orientation exercises.

Through case-based discussions and AI-assisted segmentation tools, attendees gain experience in differentiating normal anatomy from pathological alterations in neurological diseases such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, and tumors. The integration of functional and structural data provides a holistic view of brain organization crucial for precise diagnosis and intervention planning.

By the end of the course, participants will have developed advanced spatial understanding, practical imaging interpretation skills, and confidence in correlating neuroanatomy with clinical and surgical relevance.
