🫀 SCMR Extra-Cardiac Findings Course
Expand your perspective beyond the heart.
Join SCMR for a one-day, fully virtual educational course designed to provide a comprehensive and practical overview of extracardiac findings encountered during cardiac imaging.
While cardiac-focused studies are primarily aimed at evaluating cardiovascular structures, incidental extracardiac findings can have significant clinical implications. This course will explore how to recognize, interpret, report, and appropriately manage these findings across multiple anatomical regions.
🔍 What You'll Learn
• Identify the full spectrum of extracardiac findings encountered during cardiac imaging
• Classify findings by anatomical district (neck, mediastinum, thorax, abdomen, and bone)
• Recognize key imaging characteristics of common and clinically relevant findings
• Understand reporting strategies and appropriate follow-up recommendations
• Differentiate benign findings from those requiring further evaluation
• Apply practical diagnostic pathways through illustrative case discussions
📚 Course Highlights
• Review of normal anatomy and common variants
• Overview of relevant pathologies
• Key imaging features and diagnostic clues
• Reporting recommendations within cardiac imaging studies
• Clinical management pathways and follow-up strategies
• Case-based learning throughout the course
