CARDIAC IMAGING
Target Audience: Radiologists, radiologists-in-training and other health professionals
with an interest in the application of the radiologic sciences to the detection and
management of diseases of the heart and great vessels.
Goals and Objectives: Upon completion of the cardiac imaging track, the participant
should be able to determine the appropriate use of CT and MR in the management of
patients with heart disease. In addition, the participant should have gained proficiency in
recognizing the imaging features and constructing an imaging differential diagnosis for
various cardiovascular diseases in both the emergency and nonemergency setting.
