The focus of this practical talk is not on sequences or neuroanatomy but to apply neuroradiology findings to guide the treatment for acute stroke, hemorrhage and ICP crises. The focus will be on a case based approach using examples to show how neuroimaging guides the decision for thrombectomy in acute stroke, how it can refine the differential (such as in aneurysmal subarachnoid pattern hemorrhage from cortical SAH that may result from endocarditis, RCVS or CAA), and how neuroimaging guides the need for decompressive hemicraniectomy and CSF diversion in cases of herniation and hydrocephalus.
