Date & Location
Friday, January 17, 2020, 7:15 AM - Sunday, January 19, 2020, 2:15 PM, Cedars-Sinai Harvey Morse Conference Center, Los Angeles, CA

Target Audience
Specialties - Cardiology, Imaging, Nuclear Medicine

Overview

Advanced cardiac imaging with nuclear cardiology, cardiac CT, and cardiac MRI are changing rapidly in their scope and clinical utilization. How the technologies are optimally performed and applied to provide value is the focus of this three day conference, which utilizes extensive case presentation as a means of learning. There is a need to fully understand the new applications of the technologies as well as changes in the evidence regarding their use. Physicians performing, interpreting the tests need to optimize their abilities, and those who order the tests need to understand the issues regarding value-based imaging considering new trial results and guidelines. We meet these educational needs through a live three-day symposium entitled: Advances in Nuclear Cardiology, Cardiac CT and Cardiac MRI: 35th Annual Case Review with the Experts.

*NEW SESSIONS for the 2020 program include THE ISCHEMIA TRIAL: IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE, CARDIAC AMYLOIDOSIS, CARIAC SARCOIDOSIS, MYOCARDIAL BLOOD FLOW WITH PET, SPECT, AND CMR. The last day of the program focuses on expanding use of cardiac CT.

SESSION 1: INTERPRETING AND REPORTING SPECT/PET MPI CASES IN DAILY PRACTICE
SESSION 2: THE FUTURE OF NUCLEAR CARDIOLOGY
SESSION 3: RADIOPHARMACEUTICALS, CAMERAS, SOFTWARE, RADIATION
SESSION 4: CARDIAC AMYLOIDOSIS: THE MOST RAPIDLY GROWING NUCLEAR CARDIOLOGY APPLICATION
SESSION 5: MYOCARDIAL VIABILITY AND NUCLEAR CARDIOLOGY CASES
