SUMMARY:Cardiac and Peripheral Vascular MR
DESCRIPTION:Cardiac and Peripheral Vascular MR\n\nSchedule & Registrat
 ion\nMember Fee*: $4,000.00\nMar. 4-6, 2011 (Fri – Sun)\n\nCourse Ov
 erview\n\nThis two-and-a-half-day course is designed to optimize clini
 cal practice skills by providing intense training in interpreting card
 iac MR examinations under the supervision of expert faculty.\n\nPartic
 ipants will use a FujiPACS workstation and have access to over 50 card
 iac MR and vascular MR Angiography cases for review. Post-processing t
 echniques and interpretation will be emphasized. The course also cover
 s technical considerations for obtaining optimal examinations for inte
 rpretation. . Preparation material for this course can be found here.

 , Miami, Fla.\n\nProgram Objectives\nAt the conclusion of this confere
 nce, participants will be able to:\n\n1. Identify normal cardiovascula
 r anatomy and normal anatomic variants.\n\n2. Determine the spectrum o
 f ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathies, including function, rest
  and stress perfusion and viability.\n\n3. Evaluate of pericardial con
 striction, cardiac masses, valvular disease, pulmonary veins and cardi
 ac shunts.\n\n4. Identify new techniques such as assessment of area at
  risk and myocardial edema with T2W imaging.\n\n5. Interpret Vascular 
 MRA including: Aorta, renal, carotid, visceral and peripheral vessels\
 n\n6. Recognize imaging manifestations of cardiovascular disease, and 
 the complementary role of MRI to echocardiography, CT and cardiac cath
 eterization in therapeutic decision-making.\n\n7. Apply the technical 
 basis of cardiovascular MRI, including hardware requirements, sequence
  selection and optimization, and technical limitations.\n\n8. Apply po
 st-processing techniques for functional, flow and angiographic evaluat
 ion.\n\n9. Review ongoing technical and clinical developments in the f
 ield of Cardiovascular MRI\n\nAttendees who interpret a minimum of 50 
 cardiovascular MR scans will be awarded a Certificate of Proficiency s
 tating they meet the case requirement as specified in the ACR Practice
  Guideline for Performance and Interpretation of Cardiac Magnetic Reso
 nance Imaging (MRI).\n\n* Members-in-Training fee is 50% off member ra
 te. Attendees who register 3 months in advance will receive a $250 dis
 count (Member-In-Training: $125 discount). Late registrations received
  within two weeks of the course will be charged an additional $500 (Me
