Overview

This two-day symposium brings together international experts from Cedars-Sinai, Duke University, University of Freiburg, and University of Amsterdam to discuss the latest advances in the diagnosis and management of Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension (SIH) and related CSF leak disorders. The program covers a wide range of topics, including clinical presentation, diagnostic techniques, treatment modalities, controversies in management, and international cooperation in SIH research and treatment.

Objectives

Accurately diagnose SIH based on its clinical spectrum and impact.
Select and implement appropriate diagnostic and treatment approaches for SIH in their clinical practice.
Apply evidence based strategies to manage controversial aspects of SIH in their patient care.
