Fetal Neurosonography 2027: 7th Annual International Online Course
Extempore is hosting the 7th Annual International Online Course "Fetal Neurosonography 2027" on March 20, 2027. This intensive 7-hour virtual event provides live interactive sessions with simultaneous interpretation into English, Ukrainian, and Spanish, accompanied by 31 days of on-demand recorded access. EACCME accreditation is pending. Registration and full program details are available at https://english.extempore.info/fetal_neurosonography_2027.
The course delivers a comprehensive, advanced update on imaging, diagnosing, and managing complex fetal brain anomalies. Key scientific themes cover critical developmental milestones between the first and second trimesters, commissural abnormalities, and posterior fossa malformations. Sessions closely examine the diagnostic value of transvaginal neurosonography versus fetal MRI, fetal intracranial hemorrhages, vascular malformations, tumors, cortical lamination patterns, subplate pathology, and the translation of imaging phenotypes into genomic diagnoses and fetal therapy indications.
Led by Scientific Director Prof. Ritsuko Pooh (Japan), the international faculty features globally renowned leaders in prenatal imaging and maternal-fetal medicine. Speakers include Prof. Rabih Chaoui (Germany), Prof. Liona Poon (Hong Kong/UK), A/Prof. Anastasija Arechvo (UK), Dr. Eran Bornstein (USA), Prof. Gregor Kasprian (Austria), A/Prof. Magdalena Sanz Cortes (USA), Prof. Shiri Shinar (Canada), Dr. Frank Chervenak (USA), Prof. Kyoko Itoh (Japan), Prof. Tomasz J. Nowakowski (USA), Dr. Antonio Mendez (Mexico), and Dr. Tessa Homfray (UK).
Designed for ultrasound specialists, obstetricians, maternal-fetal medicine consultants, fetal radiologists, pediatric neurologists, and geneticists, this course bridges high-resolution imaging with neurobiology and genetic etiology. Attendees will gain direct clinical insight into differentiating benign variants from severe CNS anomalies, understanding the limits of imaging modalities, and applying ethical, multidisciplinary approaches to parental counseling and prenatal management.
