Overview:
University of California San Francisco Clinical Update (SA-CME)
This comprehensive review course in Thoracic Imaging covers the latest imaging methodologies and diagnostic techniques, laying special emphasis on CT and PET.
A Comprehensive Review of Thoracic Imaging
This CME is a broad and diverse review of cross-sectional imaging of the chest. UCSF Thoracic Imaging includes case-based lectures on topics like cardiovascular imaging, pulmonary imaging, lung cancer screening, typical and atypical appearances of lung cancer, and practical applications of lung cancer staging, etc. It will help you to:
- Recognize the typical manifestations of acute and chronic aortic syndromes
- Understand the role of CT and PET scans in the evaluation and staging of lung malignancies
- Describe a pragmatic approach to the assessment of lung infections
- Illustrate the role of cross-sectional imaging in the assessment of pulmonary embolism
- Differentiate between benign and malignant lung nodules, using CT and PET scans
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, you will know how to:
- Confidently interpret high-resolution CT scans of the lungs and provide focused differential diagnoses
- Describe a practical approach to the imaging of lung infections
- Understand typical manifestations of acute and chronic aortic diseases
- Describe the role of cross-sectional imaging in the evaluation of pulmonary embolism
- Discriminate benign vs. malignant lung nodules/masses on CT and PET
- Understand the role of CT and PET in the evaluation and staging of lung cancer
Intended Audience
This educational activity was designed for radiologists and other medical professionals who would benefit from a greater understanding of the interpretation of thoracic images.
