   Neuro-Ophthalmology Review Live Courses

   The course will review multiple topics in clinical neuro-ophthalmology. The first day will consist of didactic lectures by experts in neuro-ophthalmology on various topics including giant cell arteritis, nystagmus, optic nerve sheath meninigioma, pseudotumor cerebri, third nerve palsy and the treatment of diplopia. On the second day, cases of common neuro-ophthalmologic problems will be presented to our panel who will discuss their practical approach to patient evaluation and management. Problems presented will include optic neuritis, neuroretinitis, neuromyelitis optica, ischemic optic neuropathy, hereditary optic neuropathy, anisocoria, diplopia, nystagmus and myasthenia gravis. The day will also include a session on the clinical/neuro-radiologic correlation of several neuro-ophthalmologic disease processes. The third day will start with case presentations by retina experts attempting to sort out the occasionally difficult question of "Is it optic nerve or is it retina?" as a cause of visual loss. The rest of the session will consist of multiple unusual case presentations with many useful clinical pearls presented by our expert neuro-ophthalmologists.

   Mayo Clinic Symposium on Concussion in Sport: Webcast Internet Activity (Live Broadcast)

   If you're unable to attend the onsite symposium, you can participate through a webcast! The symposium webcast will feature the same leading experts in the field, who will be presenting at the onsite symposium in real time. Concussion is a major public health priority that transcends age, gender and sport. The under-reporting and recognition of concussion; and the potential for short-term catastrophic consequences and disabling long-term neurological impairment from repeated concussions has prompted the passage of legislation in many states that requires the immediate removal from play of an athlete suspected of having a concussion; mandatory concussion education of all those who intersect with an athlete; and return-to-play clearance by a qualified health care provider. This state-of-the-art symposium highlights the epidemiology of concussion in sport; the pathophysiology of concussion; sideline and outpatient clinical evaluation; standard and novel diagnostic strategies; and implementation of return-to-activity guidelines. The format includes platform lectures, small group workshops, panel discussions, and live two-way remote audio/video concussion evaluations using robotic teleconcussion technology. The faculty is comprised of renowned scientific and clinical experts in the field of concussion from Mayo Clinic and leading US academic medical centers. The intended audience includes athletic trainers, athletic directors, allied health professionals and physicians involved, or with an interest, in the evaluation and management of individuals with concussion.
