Clinical Nuclear Cardiology and Cardiac CT Meeting on Demand

2018 Recent Advances in Clinical Nuclear Cardiology and Cardiac CT Meeting on Demand™ Program

The 2018 Recent Advances in Clinical Nuclear Cardiology and Cardiac CT Meeting on Demand™ Program is perfect for you if you are:

  • Wanting to have the latest information in nuclear cardiology and cardiac CT presented in compact 20 minute segments by a superb faculty
  • Interested in earning your IAC accreditation requirements of 15 Nuclear Credit Hours.
  • Seeking to earn 21.5 Dual MOC/CME credits
  • Preparing for the Nuclear (CBNC) and/or Cardiac CT (CBCCT) Boards
  • Looking for a review of 100+ evidence-based cases focusing on technical and clinical problems commonly encountered in practice to increase your interpretive skills

Designed to meet the needs of professionals who perform or request nuclear cardiology, cardiac CT or cardiac MRI studies, this online course emphasizes the use of these modalities across the spectrum of patients with suspected or known coronary disease as well as other non-coronary cardiac disease states.

The faculty consists of expert cardiac imaging clinicians and scientists from across the country who guide you through the latest advances in nuclear cardiology, cardiac CT and other imaging modalities.
