Radiology CME: Updates in Abdominopelvic and Thoracic Imaging

A comprehensive review of clinically relevant topics in thoracic and abdominopelvic imaging, this online video CME program lends special attention to imaging findings, reporting and management guidelines, and multimodality evaluation. Presenters — including UCSF and guest faculty — review indications commonly seen in general practice and highlight state-of-the-art imaging approaches.

Continuing medical education topics include pulmonary embolism, diffuse lung diseases, masses and malignancies of all major organs, emergent gastrointestinal conditions, multimodality evaluation of transplant donors and recipients, and more.

Additional sessions in UCSF Abdominal and Thoracic Imaging highlight procedures commonly performed by body radiologists, and the imaging evaluation of post-procedural complications.

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

At the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to:

  • Identify important imaging characteristics of diffuse lung diseases on HRCT, to arrive at an appropriate diagnosis or differential diagnosis
  • Identify various forms of bowel ischemia and understand key pathophysiology that contributes to imaging appearance
  • Apply appropriate imaging protocols to the MRI evaluation of rectal and prostate cancer, and identify key disease features permitting accurate diagnosis and staging
  • Understand the importance of incidental findings in thoracic imaging studies, and recommend appropriate next diagnostic or management steps
  • Detect post-procedural complications that may arise in the abdomen and pelvis, and report them in a manner most helpful for further patient management
  • Identify and give an appropriate differential diagnosis for lesions in the kidneys, pancreas, spleen, liver, and other organ systems
  • Sonographically assess the post-transplant liver, kidney, and pancreas, and accurately characterize common vascular and parenchymal complications
  • Characterize pulmonary nodules, understand potential underlying etiologies, and recommend appropriate imaging surveillance and/or other patient management
