Overview:
Radiology CME: The Latest in Thoracic Imaging
This online CME course offers a practical approach to imaging of the pulmonary, vascular, and cardiac systems. It’s designed as a comprehensive review for radiologists who interpret thoracic imaging studies, focusing on the diverse use of CT, including PET, MRI, and radiography correlations.
Concise continuing medical education lectures span a broad cross-section of thoracic topics and emphasize recent updates of established clinical guidelines, including lung cancer screening, management of pulmonary nodules, and a review of high-resolution CT of the lung in the context of updated diagnostic criteria for interstitial pneumonias.
UCSF Thoracic Imaging speakers also discuss the synthesis of cardiac and pulmonary findings in patients presenting with acute symptoms (i.e. pulmonary embolism, acute aortic syndromes, cardiac disease), and on post-operative patients.
Accreditation
The University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine (UCSF) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Designation
UCSF designates this educational activity for a maximum of 12.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
The total credits are inclusive of 13.00 in CT and 2.00 in Plain Film.
Date of Original Release: May 8, 2023
Series Expiration Date: May 7, 2026
Estimated Time to Complete Activity: 12.25 hours
CME credit is obtained upon successful completion of an activity post-test and evaluation. CME Credit registration forms must be submitted prior to series expiration date. Certificates will be dated upon receipt and cannot be dated retroactively.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to:
- Interpret high-resolution CT scans of the lungs and provide focused differential diagnoses
- Apply a practical approach to the imaging of lung infections
- Identify typical manifestations of acute and chronic aortic diseases
- Utilize cross-sectional imaging in the evaluation of pulmonary embolism
- Differentiate benign vs. malignant lung nodules/masses on CT and PET
- Implement the use of CT and PET in the evaluation and staging of lung cancer
