Abbott, MD, FACC, FASNC, FAHA President, ASNC 2016 Associate Professor of Medicine Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University Director, Cardiovascular Imaging Cardiovascular Institute, Rhode Island, Miriam and Newport Hospitals Providence, Rhode Island, USA
2 New Challenges in Nuclear Cardiology Practice Training and education (PET) Isotope shortages Appropriate use Emerging technologies and techniques Radiation dose reduction strategies International Growth of Nuclear Cardiology
3 Nuclear Cardiology Training USA Cardiologists learn Nuclear Cardiology as part of Cardiology Fellowship Some Nuclear Medicine and Radiologists Most Nuclear Cardiology is outpatient SPECT with small Cardio-focal cameras Compared to other countries less coronary angiography as first test CTA being used more widely
