Krestin; Rotterdam/NLPresiding:C. Ayuso; Barcelona/ESJ.I. Bilbao; Pamplona/ES10:30A-111 IntroductionC. Ayuso; Barcelona/ESSession Objectives:1. To discuss the role of imaging techniques in different clinicalscenarios where radiologists are key, from diagnosis to treatment.2. To present technical imaging innovations that assist the diagnosis,treatment and follow-up in three different clinical scenarios:ischaemic stroke, aortic aneurism and hepatocellular carcinoma.3. To present specific clinical advantages and results of themultimodality approach.10:35A-112 Ischaemic strokeJ. Macho; Barcelona/ESLearning Objectives:1.
