In this lecture on Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH), Andrew Kim, MD, Assistant Professor of Clinical Radiology at Weill Cornell Medicine and an Assistant Attending Radiologist at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, will discuss the radiology tools used to assess the neurological system. IIH requires imaging to rule out secondary causes of elevated intracranial pressure, however MRI and MR venography of the brain have specific findings related to IIH.

Disclaimer: As of this webinar, no stent has been approved by the FDA for use in the venous sinuses of the brain. Therefore, venous sinus stenting is currently performed with stents used off-label. Neither IIH-Hub nor Serenity Medical, Inc. endorse the off-label usage of stents. The views expressed in this video are those of the speakers alone.

IIH—sometimes referred to as Pseudotumor Cerebri—is an underdiagnosed and undertreated disorder of elevated pressure within the brain without an identifiable cause. The IIH Practitioner Series is designed for neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuro-interventionalists, endovascular surgeons, interventionist radiologists, neuroradiologists, ophthalmologists, optometrists, and ENT specialists. Patients and caregivers are always welcome to attend.
