CME credit is awarded upon successful completion of a course evaluation and post-test.

Learning Objectives

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

• Identify the clinical features of common and less common diseases to create an appropriate differential diagnoses
• Discuss how both general and subspecialty radiologic imaging techniques lead to the appropriate differential diagnoses of common and less common diseases
• Detail how the newer imaging methods of breast tomosynthesis, diffusion MR, tractography, cardiac CT/MR, virtual colonoscopy, PET/CT, SPECT/CT, and PET/MR can lead to improved diagnoses
• Compare the most effective imaging methods of different disease entities
• Analyze the strengths and limitations of different diagnostic imaging procedures
• Describe how technology and the greater healthcare system affect the practice of radiology

Intended Audience

The target audience includes practicing radiologists and residents seeking a comprehensive review of diagnostic radiology.
