To Be Determined

Course Overview

This three-day preceptorship is designed to provide practicing radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians with an intensive, hands-on experience in reading PET-CT. The course is geared to physicians who have already completed some formal course work on PET and/or PET-CT but have only gained a limited experience reading scans in their daily clinical practice. The attendee will interpret in a frontline fashion over 150 PET-CT scans covering all clinical applications including those in oncology, neurology and cardiology. Through participation in multiple scan interpretation sessions, each concluding with a detailed review of the key findings, the attendee will develop a higher level of expertise and confidence in interpreting PET-CT.

Program Objectives

Upon completing this preceptorship, participants will be able to:

Identify and discuss the clinical applications of PET/CT
Describe a systematic approach to interpreting PET/CT
Recognize normal variants, incidental findings, and pitfalls on PET/CT
Develop expertise in interpreting PET/CT for a wide range of oncologic indications including assisting in diagnosis, staging, restaging, and monitoring response to therapy in a variety of cancer types.

Attendees who interpret a minimum of 150 PET/CT scans will be awarded a Certificate of Proficiency stating they meet the case requirement as specified in the ACR Practice Guideline for the performance of positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) in adults.
