Abstract

Welcome to the McGill Journal of Medicine (MJM) LMCC review. This podcast series was created to aid medical students studying for the Canadian Medical Council’s licensing exam. Each episode is created based on specific LMCC objectives. Part 1 provides an overview of the topic with the help of experts in the field, and Part 2 reviews LMCC-style questions to help consolidate knowledge.

In this episode, McGill Medical student Jenna Kiliot discusses Diplopia with expert advisor Dr. Fraser Moore, associate professor in the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery, an associate Member of The McGill Institute of Health Science Education, and a program director for the McGill adult neurology residency program. In their conversation, they cover targeted history and physical exams for diplopia, anatomy of the eye, diplopia etiologies, physiopathology, and treatment.

Objective 23: Diplopia. This episode was written by Jenna Kilian, edited by Fraser Moore and Esther SH Kang, sound edited by Renée-Claude Bider and the MJM Podcast Team
