SUMMARY:6th Advanced Course on Pediatric Cardiovascular Imaging
DESCRIPTION:6th Advanced Pediatric Cardiovascular Imaging Course - Jan
 uary 21-23, 2011\n\nStanford Hospital and Lucile Packard Children’s 
 Hospital\nStanford, California\n\nCourse Chairmen: Richard Barth, MD, 
 Paul S. Babyn, MD, and Ronald Cohen, MD\n\nCourse Directors: Frandics 
 Chan, MD, PhD, Taylor Chung, MD, and Shi-Joon Yoo, MD, PhD\n\nStatemen
 t of Need\n\nThere have been important advances in pediatric cardiovas
 cular imaging in the past decade, especially with cardiac MR and CT. A
 dvances in spatial resolution, speed, and analytical tools continue to
  evolve, resulting in improved diagnosis and clinical management of ma
 ny forms of cardiovascular disease. Concurrent to an expansion of thei
 r utilization is a growing concern regarding the risks associated with
  these exams, especially in the pediatric population, for whom many pr
 otocols need to be adjusted for. Pediatric imaging requires specialize
 d imaging approaches, safety measures, and specific understanding of p
 ediatric anatomy and the spectrum of disease. This course is broken in
 to two parts to meet the evolving educational needs of the pediatric c
 ardiovascular imager. The first course, the 8th SPR Symposium on Pedia
 tric Cardiovascular MR, is a three day small-group course whose aim is
  to review the necessary basic knowledge of heart disease in children 
 and the practical use of MR for morphologic, functional and hemodynami
 c evaluation in a small group setting, and with hands-on MR scanning, 
 interpretation, and post-processing sections. The second half of the c
 ourse, the 6th Advanced Pediatric Cardiovascular Imaging Course, will 
 cover the advanced utilization of imaging technologies to evaluate ped
 iatric cardiovascular disease and management according the current bes
 t practice by leaders in the field, and will address clinical advances
  and future applications in this exciting and rapidly evolving field.\
 n\nTarget Audience\n\nThis course is intended for practicing radiologi
 sts and cardiologists interested in imaging of patients with congenita
 l heart diseases. The 8th SPR Symposium on Pediatric Cardiovascular MR
 /Basic Course is specially designed for practicing radiologists and ca
 rdiologists who are interested in the hands-on scanning and post-proce
 ssing involved in pediatric cardiovascular MR imaging. Due to the natu
 re and design of the course, space is limited to 15 applicants. Each a
 pplicant is required to submit a supporting letter from the chairperso
 n of their respective departments. If accepted into the course, each a
 ttendee is required to also attend the 6th Advanced Pediatric Cardiova
 scular Imaging Course and the registration fee for the Basic Course in
 cludes registration to the Advanced Course. The Advanced Course is a d
 idactic course open to all practicing physicians who are interested in
  advanced imaging applications in the field of pediatric cardiovascula
 r imaging.\n\nLearning Objectives\n\n6th Advanced Pediatric Cardiovasc
 ular Imaging Course, January 21-23:\nEmploy imaging techniques and pro
 tocols for the pediatric patient to maximize patient safety.\nApply cu
 rrent best practice indications and integrated imaging techniques for 
 pediatric cardiovascular disease evaluation and treatment.\nUtilize ad
 vanced CMR techniques for accurate assessment of myocardial function a
 nd ventricular flow.\nIncorporate CT imaging for the pediatric patient
  and post-processing tools to enhance diagnostic detail.\nEvaluate the
  latest technological developments and future applications for state-o
 f-the-art pediatric cardiac imaging.\n\nCredit Designation:\n\n6th Adv
 anced Pediatric Cardiovascular Imaging Course, January 21-23:\n\nStanf
 ord University School of Medicine designates this educational activity
  for a maximum of 15.50 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians sh
 ould only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participa
 tion in the activity.\n\nFor more information visit https://community.
