WWAMI Lecture: Dr. Noriko Salamon will speak on 'Neuroimaging of Epilepsy: Hippocampal Sclerosis and Focal Cortical Dysplasia' on April 23

Friday, April 23, 3:30-4:30 p.m.

CPISB, Room 120

Dr. Noriko Salamon is an associate professor of radiology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and Director of the Neuroradiology Fellowship, UCLA Radiological Sciences Department.

Dr. Salamon's research interests include the neuroimaging of epilepsy, the neuroimaging of ataxia, and MR spectroscopy and diffusion tensor imaging of the spinal cord.

In her studies of the neuroimaging of epilepsy, Dr. Salamon uses high resolution MRI of epilepsy using 3 Tesla; normal appearing white matter analysis for epilepsy using diffusion tensor imaging; PET-MRI fusion for surgical planning of cortical dysplasia; and extra-temporal gray/white matter volume analysis of mesial temporal sclerosis.
