What to expect

The course is aimed at participants from Azerbaijan in particular last year residents, board-certified radiologists and fellows interested in Cardiovascular Radiology and will cover level II and III knowledge as defined by the European Trainings Curriculum (ETC). This course is designed to provide insights into state of the art applications of modern Cardiac Radiology. It is organized as a multimodality course discussing the most relevant clinical applications of both Cardiac CT and MR. The presentations will provide clear recommendations for optimized imaging protocol as well as structured approach to reporting. One specific clinical focus of this course will be on the state-of-the-art application of Cardiac MR in the characterization of ischemic and non-ischemic myocardial disease, as well as on cardiac oncology, a rather new field. Another main topic will include the use of Cardiac CT in the visualization of coronary arteries and the diagnosis of coronary artery disease, even beyond stenosis detection and quantification. The faculty consists of three well known European experts who will ensure high-quality teaching. The successful structure of ESOR courses by combining the lectures with directly related interactive case discussions will be followed even in this course.

Renowned European experts ensure a high quality-teaching programme
combining theory and case presentations with an interactive character.
