If you're struggling to interpret MRI sequences ... [video I always struggled on rotations with Neuroradiology, especially hearing physicians talking about different sequences T2/Flair/DWI. This video is beautifully explained and organized. Wish I had found it earlier. Hopefully other medical students and future neurology residents can benefit.
