Classic Lectures in PET/CT Imaging - A CME Teaching Activity

This CME activity brings together some of our most popular lectures in PET and PET/CT imaging. Basic to advanced applications of PET and PET/CT are put in the context of disease detection and treatment planning. Faculty share techniques, tips and pitfalls through case based presentations.

This CME activity should benefit radiologists, oncologists, and nuclear medicine physicians. The course should also prove valuable for physicians who order these studies.
