Course Description
This symposium will cover hot topics involving new techniques, controversial clinical
diseases, and updated protocols that are encountered with increasing frequency in daily

is useful and what is not- in clinical practice. Attendees will bring home important
information to help their clinical practices. The expert speakers will draw clear
and straightforward conclusions. Each section will end with a concise summary and
sufficient time will be provided for audience interaction.

Describe
five points that can be used to improve imaging strategies in important areas of clinical
practice; Assess the applicability to
