SUMMARY:Cardiac CT Visiting Fellowship with Optional Cardiac MR
DESCRIPTION:Cardiac CT Visiting Fellowship with Optional Cardiac MR Pr
 ogram at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania\n\nApril 11-15
 , 2011\n\nLearning Objectives\n\nThis fellowship has been designed for
  radiologists and cardiologists wishing to incorporate new cardiac app
 lications of CT and MR technology into their clinical practice.\n\nTop
 ics include instrumentation, principles of patient selection, imaging 
 protocols, study interpretation and reporting. Specific applications i
 nclude ischemic, nonischemic, and congenital heart disease, valvular, 
 pericardial, and electrophysiologic disease, and extensive coverage of
  coronary artery imaging.\n\nIntroductory cardiology topics will be pr
 ovided for radiologists along with basic radiology principles (includi
 ng non-cardiac pathology in the chest) for cardiologists. In addition,
  this activity will provide sufficient case material to satisfy guidel
 ines for ACC/AHA Level I training in Cardiac CT and approximately one-
 half of the case requirements for Level II.\n\nUpon completion of the 
 program, participants will be able to:\nPart I\n1. Utilize MR in CVI w
 ith increased knowledge of imaging methods and principles and the rele
 vant anatomy and pathophysiology of common cardiovascular disorders.\n
 2. Evaluate ischemic heart disease, congenital, valvular,myocardial an
 d pericardial disease as well as cardiac tumors using MR.\n\nPart II\n
 1. Utilize CT in CVI with increased knowledge of imaging methods and p
 rinciples and the relevant anatomy and pathophysiology of common cardi
 ovascular disorders.\n2. Select the appropriate patients and identify 
 how to prepare them for Cardiac CT.\n3. Use the correct techniques to 
 perform Cardiac CT.\n4. Evaluate atherosclerotic, valvular, congenital
 , and electrophysiologic disease using cardiac CT.\n5. Describe releva
 nt training guidelines for Cardiac CT & MR practice.\n6. Independently
  process and interpret cardiac CT data sets.\n\nAccreditation\n\nThe U
 niversity of Pennsylvania School of Medicine is accredited by the Accr
 editation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide 
 continuing medical education for physicians. The University of Pennsyl
 vania School of Medicine designates this educational activity for a ma
 ximum of 36.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should only c
 laim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the
  activity.\n\nPart I: 7.75 credits\nPart II: 14.5 credits\nPart III: 1
 2.5 credits\n\nUniversity of Pennsylvania School of Medicine Faculty:\
 nCourse Director: Harold Litt, MD, PhD\n\nWilliam W. Boonn, MD\nBenoit
  Dejardins, MD, PhD\nVictor A. Ferrari, MD\nSaurabh Jha, MD\n\nDisclos
 ures\n\nUniversity of Pennsylvania School of Medicine,Office of Contin
 uing Medical Education, adheres to the ACCME Standards for Commercial 
 Support. Faculty disclosure information will be made available in the 
 conference materials and syllabi. Faculty members are also expected to
  disclose to participants any discussion of off-label and/or investiga
 tional use of pharmaceutical products or devices during the presentati
 on.\n\nTuition\n\nPart I (Optional): $500\nDidactic lectures in Cardia
 c MR\n\nParts II & III: $3500\nDidactic lectures in Cardiac CT and 75 
 Cases for review over 1 1/2 days at individual post-processing worksta
 tion followed by faculty review, including 25 videotaped acquisitions 
 towards Level II live case requirement.\n\nOptional Two to Four Week V
 isiting Observership: $2500/week\n\nFor more information visit https:/
