Our speakers and topics
We will be covering ‘Fetal Neurology at Twilight’. There are few things more challenging in Fetal Medicine than the antenatal diagnosis of a fetal brain abnormality: stepping families through the minefield of diagnosis, work-up and- most importantly- the crystal ball gazing regarding prognosis and expected long term outcomes.
1. Diagnosing Fetal Brain Abnormalities
Here we have drawn together the collective expertise of fetal neurosonography (with our experts Dr Kate Stone and Dr Michael Bethune) and MRI (Dr Lucy Hennington). We are so fortunate to have this team working with us in our Fetal Neurology service at Mercy Perinatal. They bring a wealth of experience of the normal and abnormal appearance of the fetal brain- what you should see, what you might see, what you mustn’t miss. This will be a perfect start to anchor this session.
2.Fetal Brain Abnormalities: what do we tell the parents?
We have a very special international guest joining us- to specifically answer this most important question. Professor Tally Lerman-Sagie is Professor of Pediatrics and Pediatric Neurology at the Sackler School of Medicine, Tel-Aviv University and chief of Pediatric Neurology at Wolfson Medical Center, Israel. She founded and is the head of the Metabolic-Neuro-Genetic service and is the neurologic co-director of the fetal neurology clinic, a multidisciplinary clinic that diagnoses and counsels pregnant women with fetal brain anomalies.She is an international expert in her field and we are so grateful that she has agreed to share her incredibly wise approach at Twilight.
So whether you are sonographer, GP, midwife, obstetrician, genetic counsellor, sonologist, radiologist, neonatologist or paediatrician, this Twilight is a winner! Twilight’s free and always will be, but please register….. for WEDNESDAY 27th March 6PM- 8 PM.
