Clinical Cardiopulmonary Imaging Review

Learning Outcomes and Lectures

• After completing this course, the learner should be able to identify differential diagnoses for the most seen and most important conditions in cardiopulmonary imaging; describe and assess the imaging and clinical features that allow for refinement of the differential diagnoses to allow for a more specific diagnosis; judge some of the more commonly encountered artifacts in cardiopulmonary imaging and describe why they occur and techniques to avoid them; and make management and treatment recommendations for a variety of patient cases.
