Avoid Confusion by Using Fusion: Nuclear Medicine for the Diagnosis of Indeterminate Abdominal Lesions

January 23, 2019

This webinar will review the mechanisms of many nuclear medicine radiopharmaceuticals and the imaging findings of many common lesions on nuclear medicine scintigraphy. Attendees also will practice identifying routine clinical scenarios in which nuclear medicine may aid lesion characterization.

After attending this webinar, attendees should be able to:

• List the indications, strengths, and weaknesses of radionuclides used to evaluate indeterminate abdominal lesions.
• Direct the appropriate use of PET/CT and SPECT/CT to diagnose abdominal lesions encountered in your practice.
• Describe how SPECT/CT improves evaluation of abdominal lesions.
