This course is designed to deliver a practical, yet clinically relevant review of CT imaging while emphasizing the latest technological advances. Tips, techniques, and expanded clinical applications will be highlighted throughout the program. Protocol optimization, oncological applications and lung cancer screen will be addressed. When appropriate, comparisons will be made with other modalities.
This CME activity is designed to educate diagnostic imaging physicians who supervise and interpret CT studies. This CME activity should also be useful to referring physicians who order these studies so that they might gain a greater appreciation of the strengths and limitations of clinically relevant CT studies. Technologists performing CT examinations should also benefit from this course.
