Services: Brain Imaging in Rehab

What is the Role of Brain Imaging in Neurological Rehabilitation?

Brain imaging interpretation plays a crucial role in neurological rehabilitation.

It can be used to:

  • answer clinical questions,
  • have new insights into challenging cases, and
  • guide treatment choices.

Invite me for an engaging and informative talk or workshop centred around a case study.

Clinicians will learn how interpreting brain images in rehab context changes clinical practice.

Benefits of Talking About Brain Imaging in Rehab Context

Did you know that most clinicians only read the radiology report when evaluating brain images for rehab purposes?

While the radiology report provides valuable diagnostic information, it does not provide the information that is most relevant to rehab clinicians.

  1. By analysing brain images, clinicians can:
  2. assess clients more efficiently,
  3. set more specific treatment goals,
  4. deliver a more tailored treatment plan,
  5. design a more effective discharge plan,
  6. discuss brain images with clients,
  7. empower clients to take part in decision making,
  8. provide additional evidence to base clinical decisions on, and
  9. improve communication between professionals.

Some clinicians may feel uncomfortable interpreting brain images, but attending training sessions can help address this issue.

Be mindful of settling for just the radiology report – start analysing brain images for better clinical outcomes.

Who Can Benefit From the Talks and Workshops?

The brain imaging talks and workshops are suitable for a wide range of clinicians.

Organisations can choose whether the training will be delivered to clinicians of a single or mixed disciplines.

I have delivered talks / workshops to:

  • Neuropsychologists
  • Occupational Therapists
  • Physiotherapists
  • Psychologists
  • Medical Doctors (Rehab Physicians, GPs etc.)
  • Registered Nurses
  • Speech Pathologists
  • Others

Services for Clients

How Can Brain Images Help Me in Rehab?

Brain images are mainly used by medical doctors including radiologists to study the pathology and therefore the diagnosis of your condition.

However, brain images also have a wealth of information that can help rehabilitation clinicians guide your treatment.

In the individual consultation we look together at your brain images to identify the rehab information that can help optimise your treatment.

What if I Don’t Want to See the Pictures of My Brain?

Some people feel nervous about looking at their brain images.

If that is you, then you don’t have to look at them. There are a few alternatives:

  1. I can look at the brain images with your clinician
  2. I can look at the brain images with your support person/people
  3. I can look at the images myself, and share with you the information I obtained from the images and what it means for your rehabilitation journey.
