2 CT, MR and Ultrasound: Head-to-Toe July 16-21, 2006 The Fairmont Orchid Hawaii, Kona This course is designed for the radiologist in clinical practice. It is intended to provide an overview and update on clinically relevant topics in diagnostic imaging, as well as an up-to-date assessment of the clinical uses of imaging modalities such as CT, MRI and Ultrasound in the diagnosis of diseases of the brain, chest, abdomen, pelvis, musculoskeletal and vascular system. Ample time will be available for informal discussions with the course faculty. In this course, the participant will gain an understanding of the appropriate use of basic and advanced radiologic techniques, including MDCT, MRI, MRA, and ultrasound in different clinical settings, and in the diagnosis of neuroradiologic, thoracic, abdominal, and vascular diseases. Practical uses of imaging techniques will be stressed. At the end of the course participants should be able to: - Explain the CT assessment of thoracic diagnoses including the solitary pulmonary nodule, large airways disease, and a practical approach to the high-resolution lung CT of common infiltrative lung disease, emphasizing decision-making in diagnosis; - Discuss noninvasive vascular imaging, including MDCT, and MRA of the aorta and MDCT in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism; - Explain the role of neuroimaging in the diagnosis of brain masses, ischemic disease and abnormalities of the cranial nerves; - Describe CT / MR imaging diagnosis of abdominal abnormalities, including pancreatic diseases, liver lesions and biliary abnormalities; - Improve CT / MR imaging diagnosis of uterine abnormalities; - Explain MRI diagnosis of musculoskeletal abnormalities including those involving the shoulder, ankle, hip, and knee; - Discuss state-of-the-art sonographic diagnosis of fetal morphologic abnormalities, including the skeletal system, umbilical cord and neural axis; - Relate the terminology used in obstetrical and gynecologic ultrasound; - List the elements of medical malpractice applied to obstetric and gynecologic ultrasound; - Discuss the use of ultrasound in screening for ovarian and breast carcinoma, and in the use of ultrasound in evaluation of scrotal pathology. The Big Island of Hawai i Perhaps on no other island does the mystique of the past resonate so clearly in the present. The spirit of a living, thriving culture and the timeless grace and warmth known as aloha, find full expression in the character of the people and tempo of life on the island. Visitors to The Big Island have incredible diversity at their doorstep: fiery volcanoes and verdant valleys, lush rainforests and ancient lava fields, rolling ranchlands and rugged coastlines, snow-capped mountains and pristine beaches of white, black and even green sand.

The Fairmont Orchid Hawaii Traditions of unsurpassed service and accommodations have been captured at The Fairmont Orchid on the Kohala Coast of the Island of Hawai i. Here an ambience of classic sophistication has been adapted to suit the natural surroundings of Hawaii, without compromising the high standards of decor, service and dining that have made The Orchid the hotel of choice. Recreational activities are endless here. You can enjoy the 36-hole Francis H.I. Brown Golf Courses, former home of the Senior Skins Game; tennis on any of ten plexipave courts, including a stadium court; a 10,000 square-foot freshwater swimming pool and surrounding whirlpools; a protected white-sand lagoon and full-service ocean activities desk; year-round kids program; complimentary access to The Fitness Center, offering creative wellness options; basketball; poolside ping-pong; beach volleyball, and more. Guests may start off their mornings with a tennis clinic, power walk and stretch, low-impact aerobic conditioning, or even a snorkel cruise. Then venture out for an introductory scuba lesson, beach and pool volleyball tournaments, or round-robin tennis tournaments. A romantic evening sunset sail or just watching the Kohala sunset from a swaying beachside hammock completes the day. The Orchid's "Keiki Aloha" (children's program) utilizes the hotel's unique location and enables its young guests to make new friends and learn more about Hawaii -- it's The Orchid's way of sharing "aloha" with future generations. "Keiki", children ages five through twelve who are staying with their parents at the hotel, can participate in a wide range of special activities so that each child will share in the excitement of discovering a new culture. The activity schedule includes daily themed activities including: Hawaiian storytelling, hula lessons, coconut-leaf weaving and other island arts & crafts.
