Patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) are increasingly evaluated with cardiovascular computed tomography (CCT) from neonatal life through adulthood. There is no established educational platform specific to the performance of CT in CHD.

This course is designed for pediatric and adult congenital imagers who understand the basics of CT in CHD and are interested in reviewing and learning from complex cases in unrepaired and repaired/palliated CHD. 

This is a workstation based course with 25 cases selected to illustrate CT techniques or unique CHD lesions/findings. The cases will focus on complex neonatal CHD, single ventricle CHD and PVR planning and complications post procedure. 

Faculty:

B. Kelly Han, MD, FSCCT

Learning Objectives:

Upon completing the course, learners will be able to:

• Understand contrast techniques and acquisition protocols for moderate to complex CHD
• Understand dose optimization specific to CHD indication
• Understand post processing techniques to illustrate CT findings in CHD
