Nine international and 26 national level experts are participating in the 4th National Annual Conference of the Society of Neurosonology, Head of Department of Neurosonogloy and Stroke, KG Hospital, M Pradeep said in a release here.
Over 200 neurologists from all over the country and from abroad would attend the conference, he added.
Neurosonology is a big leap forward in the management of stroke, the devastating disease which has imposed a huge global burden as the morbidity and mortality rates among those who get such a physical condition are quite high, he noted.
Whenever blood flow to the brain is affected due to obstruction in the blood vessel or due to blood clot in the brain, it will lead to acute stroke.
Next to heart attack and cancer, stroke is identified as leading cause of death all over the world, Pradeep said.
