GALEN Advanced Course on Contrast Media for Better Diagnostic Accuracy

GALEN Advanced Course on Contrast Media for Better Diagnostic Accuracy is organized by European School of Radiology (ESOR) and would be held during May 11 - 12, 2017 at ADEIT - Fundacion Universidad - Empresa De La Universitat De Valencia, Valencia, Spain. The target audience for this medical event basically for senior residents, board certified radiologists and fellows interested in contrast enhanced radiological studies, including US, CT and MR imaging.

The course will strengthen the importance of contrast enhancement and the benefit of contrast media usage in diagnostic imaging procedures across all indications that require contrast enhancement to achieve the highest diagnostic confidence. Special focus will be on the application of the latest imaging techniques available to improve medical imaging and patient safety.

Learning objectives :
• to appreciate the potential of advanced contrast enhanced imaging in the clinical management of diseases and their safety concerns
• to review state-of-the-art contrast enhanced imaging strategies and criteria available in the detection and characterisation of the most frequent/important clinical conditions
• to learn how to measure different biological properties such as blood flow and capillary permeability in different diseases
