6th Annual addition
Organized by
This comprehensive course, chaired by Dr. Ritsuko Pooh and A/Prof. Anastasija Arechvo, is designed to provide a deep and structured understanding of fetal neuroimaging. The program gathers top professionals in the field of fetal medicine, neurosonography, prenatal genetics, and pediatric neurology, and offers participants advanced, evidence-based knowledge with practical clinical insights.

This course is designed for fetal medicine specialists, obstetricians, sonographers, radiologists, geneticists, and pediatric neurologists involved in prenatal diagnosis and fetal brain imaging.

Participants will explore normal fetal brain development, systematic neurosonographic assessment, advanced imaging techniques, genotype–phenotype correlations, and the prenatal–postnatal management of complex brain abnormalities.

Join a global community of professionals and stay at the forefront of fetal neuroimaging — all from the convenience of a fully virtual course. Don’t miss this opportunity to advance your expertise, connect with world-renowned faculty, and transform your approach to fetal brain assessment.
