III International Meeting
European NeuroSOnography (ENSO) Group
Discovering
FETAL BRAIN
from diagnosis to counselling

Obiettivo
Fetal brain anomalies are among the most common structural malformations diagnosed during antenatal life and therefore in the last few years fetal neurology has become a discipline on its own.
Understanding and diagnosing fetal brain anomalies is crucial for appropriate medical management and support for affected individuals and their families.
With leading experts from around the world, this two-day course on advanced fetal neurology organized by the European Neurosonography (ENSO) Working Group is intended for fetal medicine specialists, radiologists and trainees with a special interest in the field of fetal and perinatal neurology.
The course will allow all the participants to gain in-depth knowledge about fetal brain anomalies and to merge information from different imaging techniques for a better characterisation of an anomaly, making fetal medicine an accurate, prognostic rather than only a diagnostic medicine.
