The Doctor is IN #1: Brain Vessels, MRI, & CTs Explained

AVM Alliance Podcast

We are beginning season two with a 3 part “The doctor is In” Series going over questions with Dr. Stuart Fraser, the director of the pediatric stroke program with McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. This month’s Part one episode focuses on medical terms parents read on radiology reports and goes into more detail about the different radiology tests doctor’s order as well as the major blood vessels of the brain. Each episode for this season will end with a focus on a special children’s book with a "Things to Think About” takeaway lesson. This month's book is "Maybe" by Kobi Yamada.
