SUMMARY:Cardiac and Peripheral Vascular MR
DESCRIPTION:Cardiac and Peripheral Vascular MR\n\nCourse Overview\n\nT
 his two-and-a-half-day course is designed to optimize clinical practic
 e skills by providing intense training in interpreting cardiac MR exam
 inations under the supervision of expert faculty.\n\nParticipants will
  use a FujiPACS workstation and have access to over 50 cardiac MR and 
 vascular MR Angiography cases for review. Post-processing techniques a
 nd interpretation will be emphasized. The course also covers technical
  considerations for obtaining optimal examinations for interpretation.
 \n\nSchedule & Registration\nMember Fee*: $4,000.00\nOct. 21-23, 2011

 la.\n\nProgram Objectives\n\nAt the conclusion of this conference, par
 ticipants will be able to:\n\n1. Identify normal cardiovascular anatom
 y and normal anatomic variants.\n\n2. Determine the spectrum of ischem
 ic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathies, including function, rest and str
 ess perfusion and viability.\n\n3. Evaluate of pericardial constrictio
 n, cardiac masses, valvular disease, pulmonary veins and cardiac shunt
 s.\n\n4. Identify new techniques such as assessment of area at risk an
 d myocardial edema with T2W imaging.\n\n5. Interpret Vascular MRA incl
 uding: Aorta, renal, carotid, visceral and peripheral vessels\n\n6. Re
 cognize imaging manifestations of cardiovascular disease, and the comp
 lementary role of MRI to echocardiography, CT and cardiac catheterizat
 ion in therapeutic decision-making.\n\n7. Apply the technical basis of
  cardiovascular MRI, including hardware requirements, sequence selecti
 on and optimization, and technical limitations.\n\n8. Apply post-proce
 ssing techniques for functional, flow and angiographic evaluation.\n\n
 9. Review ongoing technical and clinical developments in the field of 
 Cardiovascular MRI\n\nAttendees who interpret a minimum of 50 cardiova
 scular MR scans will be awarded a Certificate of Proficiency stating t
 hey meet the case requirement as specified in the ACR Practice Guideli
 ne for Performance and Interpretation of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Im
 aging (MRI).\n\n* Members-in-Training fee is 50% off member rate. Atte
 ndees who register 3 months in advance will receive a $250 discount (M
 ember-In-Training: $125 discount). Late registrations received within 
 two weeks of the course will be charged an additional $500 (Member-In-
