Multimodality Vascular Imaging: From Head to Toe
hosted byAmerican Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS)Multimodality Vascular Imaging: From Head to Toe is organized by American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS).
Date of issuance: October 1, 2020
Date of expiration: September 30, 2026
Description:
Pulling together many of the great teachers in our field across a variety of disciplines, the course will provide a holistic view of vascular imaging across current subspecialty silos of neuroradiology, cardiothoracic imaging, abdominal imaging, pediatric and interventional radiology. The course will enhance radiologists' ability to recognize vascular diseases that tend to produce manifestations across multiple body territories. The course will offer insights to not only improve diagnosis of these pervasive and sometimes subtle diseases, but also techniques to optimize image quality to elevate practices
Goals and Objectives::
After completing this course, the learner should be able to:
• Discuss the relative strengths of key imaging modalities (ultrasound, CT, MRI, angiography) and appropriately apply each in the diagnosis of vascular disease.
• Adapt the latest best practices to optimize the quality of vascular imaging for each modality in their own practices.
• Recognize manifestations of traumatic and nontraumatic vascular injury, atherosclerotic disease, chronic thromboembolism, mesenteric ischemia, vasculitis, and congenital vascular abnormalities.
• Apply vascular imaging for surgical and interventional planning, including TAVR, prostatic embolization, surgical free flaps, and aortic aneurysm.
• Describe the latest imaging innovations (including artificial intelligence, spectral CT, 4D flow, and contrast enhanced ultrasound) and utilize each to further improve diagnosis of vascular disease.
