For years, ASNC has been a leader in establishing the value of nuclear cardiology in the imaging community.  With the publication of clinical guidelines, information statements, training standards, and educational resources, ASNC provides essential information to healthcare professionals and patients alike. ASNC would like to make the information contained in these documents readily available to members and other individuals interested in the field with a new program called "Practice Points".  Listed below are topics currently available in the series.  Check this page often as new Practice Points will be added routinely. Practice Points are available in PDF format and require the free Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in for your Web browser.
