By taking Vrije University Medical Center as an example, this paper introduced the cur-rent Neuroradiologist education training system which had the characteristics of training in a comprehen-sive and focused way, multi-disciplinary integration and paying attention to the combination of academic and clinical research. Through the comparison of the status quo of China's sub specialist training, Neuro-radiologist education training system in the Netherlands provided an important reference for China's sub specialty training.

Problem-based learning(PBL)brought many changes in the teaching model of medical education.This article explored the clinical application of PBL combined with picture archiving communicate system(PACS)in medical imaging education.Through comparing the results before and after periodic study,PBL was verified to motivate the students'learning interest.Enthusiasm of autonomic learning and problem analysis ability of students increased evidently,which provided a substantial basis for continued learning.

Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an inflammatory-demyelinating disease of central nervous system that is characterized by severe attacks of optic neuritis (ON) and longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM).Conventional MRI is the most sensitive method in detection of NMO lesions in brain,spinal cord and optic nerve,which can objectively show the site,number,size and distribution of lesions.The MRI features of NMO lesion in brain,spinal cord and optic nerve lesions were reviewed in this article.

By taking American Penn State University Medical Center as an example, the paper introduced the current American radiology resident education training situation and elaborated the radiology resident rotation system, multiform teaching model and academic research training. Medical education in American sheds light on how to reasonably arrange rotation, mobilize students' subjective initiative and improve scientific research ability, which radiology resident medical education in China can draw lessons from.

The seat of human intelligence is the human cerebral cortex, which is responsible for our exceptional cognitive abilities. Identifying principles that lead to the development of the large-sized human cerebral cortex will shed light on what makes the human brain and species so special. The remarkable increase in the number of human cortical pyramidal neurons and the size of the human cerebral cortex is mainly because human cortical radial glial cells, primary neural stem cells in the cortex, generate cortical pyramidal neurons for more than 130 days, whereas the same process takes only about 7 days in mice. The molecular mechanisms underlying this difference are largely unknown. Here, we found that bone morphogenic protein 7 (BMP7) is expressed by increasing the number of cortical radial glial cells during mammalian evolution (mouse, ferret, monkey, and human). BMP7 expression in cortical radial glial cells promotes neurogenesis, inhibits gliogenesis, and thereby increases the length of the neurogenic period, whereas Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling promotes cortical gliogenesis. We demonstrate that BMP7 signaling and SHH signaling mutually inhibit each other through regulation of GLI3 repressor formation. We propose that BMP7 drives the evolutionary expansion of the mammalian cortex by increasing the length of the neurogenic period.

Mouse cortical radial glial cells (RGCs) are primary neural stem cells that give rise to cortical oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and olfactory bulb (OB) GABAergic interneurons in late embryogenesis. There are fundamental gaps in understanding how these diverse cell subtypes are generated. Here, by combining single-cell RNA-Seq with intersectional lineage analyses, we show that beginning at around E16.5, neocortical RGCs start to generate ASCL1
