 edu.\n\nDESCRIPTION\n\nThe activity is held monthly at the Johns Hopki
 ns Bayview Medical Center in Baltimore, Maryland, in a multimedia clas
 sroom constructed specifically for the learner’s needs. This is a wo
 rkstation-based training activity, designed to meet American College o
 f Cardiology/American Heart Association Level II and III requirements.
  Each participant has their own workstation to use throughout the acti
 vity and receives personal attention and instruction by the activity f
 aculty. A workstation, which projects to the front of the room is used
  by instructors to demonstrate various aspects of CT interpretation. A
 fter receiving training on the use of the workstation, a case library 
 of over 150 cases selected to demonstrate the variety of pathology, wh
 ich can be evaluated by CT (coronary disease, bypass grafts, stents, a
 nomalies, cardiomyopathies, EP, pericardial disease, cardiac tumors) i
 s reviewed. A minimum of 100 cases is reviewed during the five days of
  the activity.\n\nTwenty hours of didactic instruction is included thr
 ough lectures and reading materials, which will cover topics of patien
 t selection, preparation, radiation, contrast, cardiac anatomy, assess
 ment of cardiac function, cardiac pathology, etc. Members of the Johns
  Hopkins faculty and guest faculty will present these topics. Particip
 ants will take a quiz to confirm understanding of these materials.\n\n
 The requirement for observation of the acquisition of 50 studies is sa
 tisfied by utilizing a combination of onsite observation of approximat
 ely 25 studies supplemented by interactive observation of approximatel
 y 25 studies performed offsite and viewed by interactive video link. P
 articipants will have the opportunity to ask questions during acquisit
 ion of the studies (i.e., patient selection, use of beta blockers) and
  to observe the steps in obtaining the scan by direct observation of t
 he scanner console. The 50 scans that were acquired during the week of
  the activity are anonymized and participants will interpret these stu
 dies on their own time following the five days of onsite training. Aft
 er faculty review of the participants’ interpretation of these 50 st
 udies and the other elements of the activity, a certificate documentin
 g completion of the Level II and III requirements will be issued.\n\nW
 HO SHOULD ATTEND\n\nThis activity is intended for physicians including
  cardiologists and radiologists who are currently in practice or are i
 n fellowship, seeking Level II competency training. For those who have
  already qualified for Level II, this added experience will meet the c
 ase requirements for Level II.\n\nOBJECTIVES\n\nAfter attending this a
 ctivity, the participant will demonstrate the ability to:\nChoose pati
 ents appropriate for this imaging modality\nPrepare patients to obtain
  optimal study results\nOptimize image reconstruction for cardiac anal
 yses\nUse 3D workstation to visualize all aspects of cardiac anatomy\n
 Assess extent of coronary atherosclerosis and evaluate LV function\nAC
