UCSF Radiology Annual Review with Rapid-Fire Cases 2018
In-Person Event
Mar 12 - 16, 2018
San Francisco, California, USA
OVERVIEW
UCSF Radiology Annual Review with Rapid-Fire Cases is organized by The University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Office of Continuing Medical Education and will be held during Mar 12 - 16, 2018 at JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square, San Francisco, California, United States of America.
The target audience for this medical event is residents, clinical fellows and practicing radiologists interested in updating their working knowledge, by covering all the major radiology subspecialties. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 34 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Course Overview :
This course will review the fundamentals of the major organ systems and corresponding imaging modalities. Emphasis will be placed on providing a stepby-step process for reaching a differential diagnosis. Lecture content will focus on comparative analysis and key factors that promote accurate diagnosis by the radiologist in clinical practice. Formal didactic lectures will be combined with unknown case sessions, in order to give the attendee a thorough review of radiology fundamentals and terminology, as well as exposure to a cross-section of topical and clinically relevant interesting cases.
The course will include the following “non-Interpretive” lectures that are essential to general clinical radiology practice: CT/MR Safety, Ultrasound Technical Tips & Artifacts, IV Contrast, Practical CT/MR Physics.
Conference Objectives :
• Identify imaging fundamentals of each of the radiology sub-specialties (organ systems).
• Prescribe the appropriate utilization of imaging modalities (CT, MR, US, Mammography, Nuc Med) for different medical conditions.
• Implement the appropriate imaging protocols for routine clinical presentations.
• Recognize indications and markers for interventional procedures, as well as assessment of outcomes.
• Apply classifi cations of pathophysiological mechanisms underlying human disease to facilitate differential diagnosis.
• Refine imaging criteria to optimize image quality/fi ndings and improve diagnostic interpretation.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
