Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Review of CT / MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis: Concise Focused Coverage of the Major Topics Included in the CT / MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis Exams" training to their offering.

CT / MRI of the Abdomen and Pelvis will provide an updated review on the use of helical (single and multidetector-row) CT and MRI for imaging of the abdomen and pelvis. Participants will learn the current approach and uses of CT / MRI in the examination of the abdomen and pelvis including advances in abdominal MRI techniques, genitourinary applications of CT / MRI, CT colonoscopy, CT / MR angiography, and CT cholangiography. A balanced emphasis is placed on review of core concepts, as well as future directions emerging in academic practice. Practical applications of these techniques are highlighted. Learners should gain familiarity with the latest approaches to helical CT / MRI including familiarity with imaging techniques and their appropriate utilization and protocols. Learning Objectives

At the completion of this program, participants will be able to:

• Recognize advantages and limitations of 64-detector-row CT / MRI for the evaluation of the hepatobiliary, genitourinary, and gastrointestinal tracts
• Triage and optimize the use of MDCT / MRI for abdominopelvic disorders
• Understand trends in cancer imaging, including PET / CT, and the effect of new cancer treatments ?on abdominopelvic organs
• Safely and quickly evaluate imaging studies for the acute abdominal patient
• Recognize and avoid common pitfalls in abdominopelvic imaging
• Describe methods for optimizing CT technique for the diagnosis of hepatobiliary, intestinal and genitourinary disease (both acute and chronic)
• Describe useful anatomic landmarks for diagnosing disease and disease spread in the retroperitoneum and pelvis
