Classic Lectures in Cardiac CTA is a comprehensive review of basic to advanced CT imaging of the heart. This activity focuses on technique optimization, anatomy, common variants, interventional procedures such as TAVR and bypass graft evaluation. In addition, important extracardiac findings, a modern imaging approach to acute cardiac syndrome, tips, pitfalls, case presentations and imaging performance strategies are emphasized. |
Target Audience â–¼
This program is designed to educate physicians who order, perform and interpret cardiac CTA examinations. |
Accreditation â–¼
Physicians:Â Educational Symposia is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.Educational Symposia designates this enduring material for a maximum of 14Â AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)TM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
All CME course participants are required to pass a written or online test with a minimum score of 70% in order to be awarded credit. (Exam materials, if ordered, will be sent with your CME order.) All CME course participants will also have the opportunity to critically evaluate the program as it relates to practice relevance and educational objectives. AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)TMÂ for these programs may be claimed until December 31, 2020. |
