This CME activity brings together some of our most popular lectures in PET and PET/CT imaging. Basic to advanced applications of PET and PET/CT are put in the context of disease detection and treatment planning. Faculty share techniques, tips and pitfalls through case based presentations.
Educational Objectives
At the completion of this CME teaching activity, you should be able to:
- Apply state-of-the-art protocols to evaluate neurodegenerative disease, head and neck and cutaneous cancers to clinical practice.
- Implement newer protocols for evaluating cancers of the lung, prostate, breast and female pelvis into practice.
- Optimize PET and PET/CT imaging protocols for the detection and follow up of lymphoma and musculoskeletal tumors.
- Describe the advantages and pitfalls of PET and PET/CT.
- Differentiate normal variants and urgent findings on PET/CT.
- Discuss the utility of PET/CT when used to evaluate cardiac disease, gastrointestinal, thyroid and prostate cancers.
Target Audience
This CME activity should benefit radiologists, oncologists, and nuclear medicine physicians. The course should also prove valuable for physicians who order these studies.
