Program Overview
* GOLD Award Winner of QS Reimagine Education Award 2021 in Life Sciences! *
This course, developed by the Department of Diagnostic Radiology, The University of Hong Kong in collaboration with committee members of international and national cardiac imaging societies, is for radiologists, cardiologists, radiographers/ technologists and other health professionals who want to learn more about this imaging modality. The course follows the level 1 recommendations of cardiac imaging societies by covering the required topics and providing 50 hands-on cardiac CT cases. Previous experience in cardiac CT is not required.
Learning outcomes:
Understanding of the common cardiac CT examinations in order to better understand how to acquire cardiac images and to interpret them.
Ability to analyse cardiac CT images at level 1 competency such as calcium score, CT coronary angiography, TAVI.
Attain hands-on experience to analyse real cases from a database of 50 clinical cases, using dedicated software, as well as further supplementation through our web forum.
Basic understanding of future developments in the cardiac CT field.
Provide career advice and thoughts from well-known experts through exclusive interviews.
A MOOC on cardiovascular magnetic resonance will be available on this platform in the near future. Watch this space!
