ASNC/IAEA Free Webinar Series
These complimentary webinars are produced in collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and they are designed to provide the best practices in Nuclear Cardiology to cardiologists, radiologists, technologists and nuclear medicine physicians.
Cardiac PET: Step by Step interpretation of myocardial perfusion study; Cardiac PET different techniques and interpretation
Date: Wednesday, April 22, 2020 - Postponed and will be rescheduled
Time: 9:00 PM - 10:00 PM (Pacific Daylight Time)
11:59 PM - 1:00 AM (US Eastern Daylight Time)
Join Drs. Chareonthaitawee and Jouni for a case-based discussion of the latest information on how to perform, interpret and report cardiac PET myocardial perfusion and its value in clinical practice. There will be an opportunity to ask questions during the last 10-minutes of this webinar.
Learning objectives:
- Describe rubidium-82 and N-13 ammonia protocols for PET myocardial perfusion imaging and measurement of myocardial blood flow
- Interpret normal and abnormal rubidium-82 and N-13 ammonia PET myocardial perfusion images
