| Start Date |
Thursday, February 11, 2010 |
| End Date |
Sunday, February 14, 2010 |
| Description |
Because of rapid advances in technology, radiologists and radiologic technologists often require a comprehensive review of recent advances in computed body tomography. This activity will focus on 64-slice MDCT and include some correlation with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The schedule offers a series of 40-minute lectures designed to concentrate on specific topics in-depth, including state-of-the-art equipment and software. Participants will have the opportunity to expand their knowledge of the latest concepts and principles of spiral/helical CT, thoracic CT, the value of high resolution CT in the chest, the uses of CT in the GI tract, clinical applications of musculoskeletal CT, and cardiac, as well as virtual colonoscopy imaging the oncologic patient.
