ASNC is committed to providing imagers with the knowledge and tools needed to make their transition to hybrid imaging smooth and successful. The ASNC2022 conference will feature ASNC’s inaugural Hybrid Imaging Symposium, which will examine the key concepts in the new guideline and use real-world cases to demonstrate how imaging professionals can break down technical, training and financial barriers that may be keeping some labs from adopting hybrid nuclear-CT imaging.
ASNC’s Hybrid Imaging Symposium will be delivered in two parts:
Part 1 is currently available OnDemand on the ASNC2022 online meeting platform.
Part 2 will be delivered live Thursday, Sept. 8, at ASNC2022 in Orlando, Florida. This interactive event will feature a panel of experienced hybrid imagers who have used different hardware, software and models in their labs.
The 2022 ASNC/AAPM/SCCT/SNMMI Guideline for the Use of CT in Hybrid Nuclear/CT Cardiac Imaging may be downloaded from the Journal of Nuclear Cardiology.
About the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology
For over 25 years, the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and its more than 4,500 members have been improving cardiovascular outcomes through image-guided patient management. As the only society dedicated solely to the field of nuclear cardiology, ASNC establishes standards for excellence in cardiovascular imaging through the development of clinical guidelines, professional medical education, advocacy and research development. ASNC provides peer-reviewed original articles through its official publication Journal of Nuclear Cardiology and operates the nation's first noninvasive cardiac imaging registry, ImageGuide Registry®, to benchmark quality and improve patient care.
