Course | | Description | Procedures in Vascular Angiography - Part 1 | | The program introduces the major manifestations of various disease states to include atherosclerosis, aneurysmal disease, mesenteric ischemia, and renovascular disease. Vascular anatomy will be reviewed, factors to determine the type of disease will be discussed, and signs and symptoms of various diseases will be utilized in documenting the precise location of the disease and in the understanding of the various types of treatment options. Technical aspects will be discussed to assist in utilizing the correct imaging for the disease state. This is Part 1 of a 2 part series. | Procedures In Vascular Angiography - Part 2 | | Part 2 of a 2 part series introduces the major manifestations of various disease states to include aneurysmal disease, peripheral arterial disease, Raynaud's disease, and cerebrovascular insufficiency. Vascular anatomy will be reviewed, factors to determine the type of disease will be discussed, and signs and symptoms of various diseases will be utilized in documenting the precise location of the disease and in the understanding of the various types of treatment options. Technical aspects will be discussed to assist in utilizing the correct imaging for the disease state. | | Rotational Angiography and Beyond Using 3D Rotational Angiography | | A rotational angiogram can be a quick and easy way to access the anatomy and the surrounding structures with fewer acquisition runs and thus, lower dose. The rotational angiogram can be performed subtracted or non-subtracted depending on the anatomy involved or patient cooperation. Rotational angiography provides the diagnostician with a means of "turning" the vessels so that the vessel of interest can be viewed unobstructed. The addition of 3D-RA to the vascular armamentarium provides another method for evaluation and therapy of complex cerebrovascular processes. | The History of Cardiac Catheterization, Past & Present | | The History of Cardiac Catheterization discusses the development and progression of Cardiac Catheterization from the 1800s to present. This module also illustrates many of todays common protocols used in routine Cardiac Catheterization procedures. |
