As part of the 12th European Stroke Conference, we are delighted to invite you to the educational
symposium, "Imaging: Upcoming Techniques and Implications for Treatment", on Thursday 22 May 2003.
This educational programme will discuss the unstable plaque before addressing new techniques and their
implications for treatment, including penumbra imaging with MR, imaging viable brain tissue with CT scan and
mapping of brain cortex function.
We hope you will be able to join us for what promises to be an interesting and informative symposium.

Please note: each presentation will be followed by a brief question and answer session
