MDCT and MR Update: Body and Musculoskeletal Imaging
CME Group, July 2008
MDCT and MR Update: Body and Musculoskeletal Imaging program features helical multi-detector row CT (MDCT) and MRI as it applies to diseases in the chest, abdomen and pelvis, and musculoskeletal system. Newer and established cross-sectional methods are discussed. For MDCT, emphasis is placed on high-resolution chest CT, the diagnosis of pulmonary artery and aortic abnormalities, lung cancer and the solitary nodule, and use of multiplanar reformations (MPRs) for abdomen and pelvis. The use of neutral oral contrast material and proper timing of intravenous contrast agent with fast scanning is emphasized. For MRI, state-of-the-art techniques are addressed; especially, breath-hold imaging and its results. The diagnostic challenge of assessing manifestations of various focal and diffuse conditions in the liver is addressed with MDCT and MRI. Incidental lesions discovered on thin-section MDCT and their clinical significance is analyzed.
Learning Objectives
- At the completion of this program, participants will be able to:
- Identify current techniques for assessing the small bowel and urinary tract using MDCT/MR
- Utilize current techniques for assessing the small bowel using CT/MR
- Diagnose abnormalities of the shoulder, hip, and knee using MRI
- Relate current imaging approaches for oncologic problems, including lung cancer
- Describe the optimal radiological imaging approaches to a large variety of abnormalities and pathological conditions in the chest, abdomen and pelvis
