Tips, Tricks and Pitfalls in Body Oncological Imaging - Experts Tell All by RSNA

Tips, Tricks and Pitfalls in Body Oncological Imaging - Experts Tell All is organized by Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) and will be held during Dec 06, 2017 - Dec 05, 2020. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 1.50 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Conference Description :
Refresher Courses are recorded courses captured at past RSNA Annual Meetings. Most courses include an audio-visual presentation, as well as a corresponding transcript. The online Refresher Courses are free to members.

Content Areas :
• Computed Tomography
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging
• Oncologic Imaging
• Ultrasound

Conference Objectives are :
• Identify ultrasound features that differentiate between benign and malignant disease, particularly in the female pelvis.
• Recommend specific scanning techniques and protocols for difficult cases.
• Develop biopsy strategies for indeterminate masses that need tissue sampling for diagnosis.
• Discuss newer MRI techniques that are now applied for body oncologic imaging that allow faster, better or more accurate disease diagnosis.
• Discuss the applications and pitfalls of diffusion-weighted imaging for assessing upper abdominal cancers, peritoneal involvement, pelvic disease and bone marrow involvement (whole body MRI).
• Describe the applications and limitations of motion insensitive radial-acquisition MR techniques for dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging for cancer evaluation.
• Identify ultrasound features that differentiate between benign and malignant disease, particularly in the female pelvis.
• Recommend specific scanning techniques and protocols for difficult cases.
• Develop biopsy strategies for indeterminate masses that need tissue sampling for diagnosis.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
