ASNC2025 Tracks & Sessions
(Sept. 4 -7, 2025)
Ischemic Heart Disease
Stay at the forefront of ischemic heart disease care with this comprehensive track focused on the latest advancements in imaging, guidelines, and clinical decision-making.
Through expert-led sessions and collaborative case discussions, you’ll explore the evolving role of SPECT and PET myocardial perfusion imaging in diagnosis, risk stratification, and revascularization planning. Sessions also cover imaging in special populations and deliver key updates from ASNC, ACC, SNMMI, and SCAI—equipping you with practical strategies to improve outcomes and strengthen clinical decision-making.
Explore sessions in the track:
- Blueprint for Better Outcomes: The Latest in Ischemic Heart Disease Guidelines and Protocols
- Cases with the Aces - Ischemic Heart Disease
- Decision Making Before Revascularization in Complex CAD: How Can Imaging Help?
- Imaging for Stable Ischemic Heart Disease: Current Practice and What the Future Holds
- Cases with the Aces - PET Myocardial Blood Flow
- Ischemia Imaging: Focus on Special Populations
Amyloidosis
Cardiac amyloidosis is no longer a rare diagnosis—it’s a growing clinical reality. The Amyloidosis Track delivers targeted insights and practical strategies to help you diagnose and manage this complex disease more effectively.
Through expert-led discussions, groundbreaking research, and real-world perspectives, this track offers a comprehensive look at how nuclear cardiology is transforming the care of amyloidosis patients.
AI, Technology, Tracers, and More
The nuclear cardiology landscape is rapidly evolving, driven by advances in artificial intelligence, imaging technology, and novel radiotracers. The AI, Technology, Tracers, and More Track brings you face to face with the tools and strategies reshaping patient care today and tomorrow.
These sessions are curated to spark ideas, challenge conventions, and equip you with the knowledge to lead innovation at your institution. From new imaging agents to AI-enhanced workflows, you’ll leave with practical insights ready to apply the very next day.
Business of Nuclear Cardiology
Success in nuclear cardiology isn’t just about clinical expertise, it’s also about running a smart, efficient, and future-ready lab. The Business of Nuclear Cardiology Track is designed for those who lead or support lab operations and want to tackle today’s challenges head-on while preparing for tomorrow’s opportunities.
From workflow optimization to financial strategy, this track delivers expert advice, peer-driven insights, and real-world tools to help you improve performance, navigate growth, and lead with confidence.
Infection and Inflammation (incl. Heart Failure and Sarcoidosis)
Diagnosing and managing inflammatory and infectious cardiovascular diseases takes a nuanced understanding of complex presentations, advanced imaging techniques, and team-based care. The Infection and Inflammation Track delivers just that, bringing together experts from across disciplines to equip you with actionable insights and strategies for real-world cases involving endocarditis, sarcoidosis, heart failure, and more.
From simulated live readings to collaborative, multimodality case discussions, this track is all about turning complexity into clarity and improving outcomes for your most challenging patients.
Research and Abstracts
The Research and Abstracts Track features fast-paced Rapid-Fire Sessions, where presenters share real-world clinical cases in just 2 minutes, followed by 2 minutes of expert Q&A. Topics include Amyloidosis, Ischemic Heart Disease, and Infection and Inflammation, offering quick, practical insights into imaging applications.
The track also includes Poster Abstracts in the Expo Hall, showcasing cutting-edge research. Presenting authors are available for discussion, and standout submissions from Fellows-in-Training are recognized with blue (Presidential) and red (Outstanding) ribbons.
