Description: 

The Cardiology Imaging Conference is a regularly scheduled multidisciplinary virtual conference focused on the interpretation and clinical application of multimodality cardiovascular imaging, including echocardiography, cardiac MRI, coronary CT angiography, and nuclear cardiology. The series uses interactive, case-based discussions to improve diagnostic accuracy, integrate patient-specific factors into care decisions, and guide appropriate use of imaging for clinical and procedural management. The goal is to enhance interdisciplinary collaboration and improve patient outcomes in complex cardiovascular disease.

Target Audience: 

Nurse Practitioner (NP)

Nurse Registered (RN)

Physicians (MD or DO)

Physician Assistant (PA)
