AUDP 7100 - Neuroscience and Neuroimaging

10 weeks/4 credit hours

The foundations of audiologic diagnostic and therapeutic measures are based upon an understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. This course provides a study of the development of the nervous system, the structure and function of the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system, neurovasculature, and in-depth coverage of the audiovestibular system. Students will gain an understanding of imaging techniques used for the evaluation of auditory and vestibular pathologies. Neurodiagnostic imaging data from CT scans, MRI, etc., will be correlated with audiologic findings when possible.
