COURSE CONTENT

This course provides a comprehensive overview of nuclear medicine imaging of coronary artery disease. General aspects, details of radiotracers utilised, examination protocols and case examples of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using PET and SPECT will be discussed at the event. The focus here will be on the quantification of data (e.g. abnormality scores, myocardial blood flow, myocardial flow reserve) collected from MPI.
