|
|
| OVERVIEW |
|
This course will review the
essentials for any cardiac exam, then provide an overview of the
clinical needs, technical foundations, and research promises focused
on evaluating cardiac function, perfusion, and viability. |
| |
| TARGET AUDIENCE |
|
Attendees, including medical
physicists, who have an emerging
interest and want to develop a working knowledge of cardiac MRI,
gain an in-depth perspective on the technical foundations, in order
to improve clinical diagnostics or advance research in cardiac
function, perfusion, and viability imaging. |
| |
| EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course,
participants should be able to: |
- Select the appropriate
solutions to meet the clinical needs of cardiac imaging in: i)
heart failure, ii) ischemic heart disease, iii) non-ischemic
heart disease;
- Recognize the clinical
indications and assess emerging techniques for cardiac perfusion
imaging in ischemic heart disease; and
- Appraise novel methods
for cardiac viability imaging for non-ischemic heart disease.
