About the Speaker
Dr. Shinya Yamada
at Chief of Neurosurgery, Toshiba Rinkan Hospital, Japan
Dr. Yamada is chief neurosurgeon at the Toshiba Rinkan Hospital in Japan. His main research topics are hydrocephalus, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) movement. Visualization of CSF using MRI spin labelling allows movement of CSF in various regions without invasiveness and contrast administration. The technique is clinically useful to observe before and after the treatment in patients with hydrocephalus.
