Description
CME: Abdominal and Pelvic Imaging
Through this online video CME program, you’ll explore state-of-the-art methods and evidence-based practices for gastrointestinal and genitourinary imaging studies. Expert faculty also review ACR guidelines for managing incidental findings on CT scans of the kidney, adrenal, liver and pancreas.
UCSF Abdominal and Pelvic Imaging is convenient continuing medical education that will help you to better:
Identify indications for the use of different imaging modalities (CT/MRI/US) for various abdomino-pelvic organs and conditions
Apply practical approaches to diagnosing both benign and malignant diseases of the abdomen and pelvis
Anticipate potential pitfalls in abdomino-pelvic imaging and interpretation
And more!
