This Conference has been Postponed. Stanford Breast In The West: Up Your Game is organized by Stanford Medicine and will be held on Jun 05 - 07, 2020 at Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa, Monterey, California, United States of America. Accreditation: The Stanford University School of Medicine designates this Live Activity for a maximum of 15.00 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM. Target Audience: Radiology, Diagnostic Radiology, Interventional Radiology and Diagnostic Radiology, Radiation Oncology Overview: The 2020 Breast in the West conference aims to enhance participants knowledge and understanding of current best practices in breast cancer imaging. Faculty experts will provide 15 hours of didactic lectures with multiple case examples, and question and answer sessions. Participants will learn strategies and diagnostic approaches from expert radiology and pathology faculty to help optimize their detection and diagnosis of breast cancer with digital breast tomosynthesis, breast ultrasound and Breast MRI. Modality specific presentations will review best evidence based clinical practice, addressing commonly encountered scenarios and highlighting recent clinical/technical developments. The faculty will incorporate evidence-based data to educate participants in current best clinical practice and to recommend strategies for improving interpretive performance. The performance and interpretation of image guided breast core needle biopsies will be discussed by experts in radiology and pathology, focusing on radiology-pathology concordance including elevated risk lesions. The overall goal of this activity is to help participants optimize their breast imaging practices.  Objectives: At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to: • Recognize causes of false positive and negative screening mammography exams • Analyze commonly ecountered pathology at imaging guided breast biopsy and appropriate management • Apply appropriate screening recommendations in normal risk women and those at increased risk for breast cancer • Identify apropriate indications for breast MRI and identify both normal and abnormal patterns of enhancement on breast MRI, • Recommend appropriate imaging for patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer and those unsergoing Neoadjuvant therapy.

ObGyn Ultrasound Hands-On Workshop is organized by Sonosession and will be held on Jun 13, 2020 at Monterey, California, united States of America. Accreditation: This course consists of 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™  This course fulfills the ARDMS continuing medical education requirement to apply for the ARDMS Midwife Sonography Certificate. Course Description: We have combined hands-on scanning sessions with online lectures and hands-on scanning videos to provide a comprehensive approach to learning OB GYN ultrasound. Students will receive immediate access to online lectures to watch at their convenience before the hands on session. These lectures include foundational information in ultrasound physics, anatomy, scanning technique, pathology and terminology. Access to these lectures will be for one year. The hands on scanning session will take place at our Monterey, CA training center. All scanning sessions include first through third trimester patients. Transvaginal scanning on actual patients is included. We do have a phantom for practice but we feel that scanning on live patients provides the most benefit in learning the technique for endovaginal ultrasound. We cover the first trimester exam including CRL measurements, M-mode, uterine position, ovaries and adnexa. The second trimester exam review depends on class demand. Third trimester growth, biophysical, AFI, cervical length, and placenta location are included. Course Objectives: • Recognize basic ultrasound artifacts • Discover common pathology and limitations of ultrasound • Perform a basic non-gravid ultrasound exam • Identify the uterus, ovaries, endometrium and cervix • Identify an intrauterine pregnancy and measure the crown rump length • Acquire an M-mode tracing of the fetal heart • Perform a biophysical profile • Measure the biparietal diameter, head circumference, abdominal circumference, and femur length for growth assessment • Measure the amniotic fluid • Identify the cervix and placental location • Communicate in a culturally-sensitive manner to patients who refuse transvaginal ultrasounds and discuss available alternatives

Accreditation: The Stanford University School of Medicine designates this Live Activity for a maximum of 15.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™  Target Audience: Radiology Overview: This course will enable radiologists and technologists to correctly interpret common body MRI exams, to know the underlying principles of MR physics, and to identify and correct image quality issues.  We will review exam protocol strategies, enabling improved communications with colleagues to improve team efficiency. Through lectures, question-and-answer sessions, engaging panel discussions and debates, participants will be better able to optimize image acquisition, discuss controversial topics in image interpretation, and enhance interactions with referring colleagues. Objectives: At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to: • Review the meaning of core MRI system component specifications, how they impact sequence parameters and recognize how to set rationally acceleration factors for various acquisitions. • Differentiate the parts of pulse sequences and their relationships to image contrasts, SNR, and scan time. Describe the basic concepts of compressed sensing and dynamic MRI. • Perform a diffuse liver disease MRI and interpret the meaning of the resulting images. • Develop strategies for obtaining optimal fat suppression. Refresh common artifacts and execute strategies to correct them. • Incorporate strategies for improving diffusion weighted image quality and MR elastography images Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
