Slopeside Insights: Practical Approaches to Navigation Moguls in Thoracoabdominal and Neurological Imaging

Slopeside Insights: Practical Approaches to Navigation Moguls in Thoracoabdominal and Neurological Imaging is organized by Penn Medicine - Department of Radiology and will be held from Feb 17 - 21, 2026 at Grand Hyatt Vail, Vail, Colorado, United States of America.

Description:
Hit the slopes and sharpen your skills - whether you practice General Radiology or specialize in Breast Imaging, we've got the perfect course for you.  Featuring two concurrent courses, Slopeside Insights was designed for general and sub-specialized radiologists in clinical practice who are looking to improve interpretive and diagnostic acumen in breast and body imaging.

 Two Concurrent Courses:

1. Slopeside Insights: Breast Radiology with the Experts: How to Keep Your Tips Up
2. Slopeside Insights: Practical Approaches to Navigation Moguls in Thoracoabdominal and Neurological Imaging

Practical Approaches to Navigating Moguls in Thoracoabdominal and Neurological Imaging is a practical, case-based course designed for clinical radiologists seeking structured approaches to complex imaging diagnoses. Emphasizing real-world strategies over disease detail, the program focuses on algorithmic interpretation methods applicable in everyday practice.

Led by Penn Radiology subspecialists and guest faculty, the course spans five days: two on abdominal imaging, one on neuroradiology, and one and a half on chest imaging. Each day features a mix of didactic lectures and interactive case discussions to reinforce key concepts.

Set in beautiful Vail, Colorado, the schedule offers morning and late afternoon sessions, leaving participants 6.5 hours each day to enjoy skiing, snowmobiling, or relaxing in the mountains. It's the ideal combination of education and outdoor recreation!

Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:

• Describe the SRU Lexicon and recognize ectopic pregnancy types to avoid interpretation errors in first trimester ultrasound.
• Differentiate consolidation from atelectasis on CT using contrast enhancement, borders, and volume loss.
• Recall common “don’t touch” lesions and anatomic variants in neuroimaging that can mimic pathology and lead to unnecessary biopsy/surgery
• Identify key features to differentiate abdominal cancer mimics from actual malignancy.
• Differentiate a minimally invasive adenocarcinoma from an inflammatory pulmonary lesion.

Note:
For Single Course - Access to On-Demand recordings for 90 days following the course

For Both Courses - Access to on-demand recordings for 6 months from the release date

The Dual Registration option - registering for the in-person course and adding the other course on-demand at a discounted bundle price - is only available until February 21, 2026.
