Course
Crossed cerebellar diaschisis — remote cerebellar effects after supratentorial stroke and imaging clues (Advanced)
Advanced course: sometimes a large cortical stroke causes reduced function/blood flow in the opposite cerebellum (diaschisis) without a primary cerebellar infarct. Learn the network concept and how perfusion/metabolic imaging can show it

Educational only — not medical advice.
What you'll learn
- Understand diaschisis as remote network suppression after stroke
- Recognize that symptoms can reflect network effects beyond the core infarct
- Understand what types of imaging can show diaschisis (perfusion/metabolic) at a high level
- Ask questions about prognosis and rehab implications
