SUMMARY:8th Symposium on Pediatric Cardiovascular MR
DESCRIPTION:8th SPR Symposium on Pediatric Cardiovascular MR/Basic Cou
 rse - January 18-21, 2011\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\nStatement of 
 Need\n\nThere have been important advances in pediatric cardiovascular
  imaging in the past decade, especially with cardiac MR and CT. Advanc
 es in spatial resolution, speed, and analytical tools continue to evol
 ve, resulting in improved diagnosis and clinical management of many fo
 rms of cardiovascular disease. Concurrent to an expansion of their uti
 lization is a growing concern regarding the risks associated with thes
 e exams, especially in the pediatric population, for whom many protoco
 ls need to be adjusted for. Pediatric imaging requires specialized ima
 ging approaches, safety measures, and specific understanding of pediat
 ric anatomy and the spectrum of disease. This course is broken into tw
 o parts to meet the evolving educational needs of the pediatric cardio
 vascular imager. The first course, the 8th SPR Symposium on Pediatric 
 Cardiovascular MR, is a three day small-group course whose aim is to r
 eview the necessary basic knowledge of heart disease in children and t
 he practical use of MR for morphologic, functional and hemodynamic eva
 luation in a small group setting, and with hands-on MR scanning, inter
 pretation, and post-processing sections.\n\nTarget Audience\n\nThis co
 urse is intended for practicing radiologists and cardiologists interes
 ted in imaging of patients with congenital heart diseases. The 8th SPR
  Symposium on Pediatric Cardiovascular MR/Basic Course is specially de
 signed for practicing radiologists and cardiologists who are intereste
 d in the hands-on scanning and post-processing involved in pediatric c
 ardiovascular MR imaging. Due to the nature and design of the course, 
 space is limited to 15 applicants. Each applicant is required to submi
 t a supporting letter from the chairperson of their respective departm
 ents. If accepted into the course, each attendee is required to also a
 ttend the 6th Advanced Pediatric Cardiovascular Imaging Course and the
  registration fee for the Basic Course includes registration to the Ad
 vanced Course. The Advanced Course is a didactic course open to all pr
 acticing physicians who are interested in advanced imaging application
 s in the field of pediatric cardiovascular imaging.\n\nLearning Object
 ives\n\n8th SPR Symposium on Pediatric Cardiovascular MR/Basic Course,
  January 18-21:\n\nEvaluate the basic principles of MR physics in deve
 loping pulse sequences and scan parameters to optimize image quality.\
 nAnalyze current cardiovascular MR protocols and imaging techniques fo
 r the pediatric population to optimize patient safety and image qualit
 y.\nApply MR scanning and post-processing techniques for accurate data
  capture and 3D reconstruction.\nAssess cardiovascular anatomy, functi
 on, and terminology as relates to pediatric MR imaging and evaluation.
 \nPerform pediatric cardiovascular MR interpretation and evaluation of
  common pathologic conditions and difficult cases.\n\nAccreditation\n\
 nThe Stanford University School of Medicine is accredited by the Accre
 ditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide c
 ontinuing medical education for physicians.\n\nCredit Designation:\n\n
 8th SPR Symposium on Pediatric Cardiovascular MR/Basic Course, January
  18-21:\n\nStanford University School of Medicine designates this educ
 ational activity for a maximum of 21.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)â„
 ¢. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of
  their participation in the activity.\n\nFor more information visit ht
