Learner Objectives
After participating in this Nuclear Cardiology Core Curriculum, learners should be able to:
- Define basic principles of SPECT and MUGA acquisition/display including tomographic views and planes.
- Define and understand properties and use of standard perfusion tracers.
- Gain knowledge of principles of stress testing, contraindications, and when to choose exercise versus pharmacologic.
- Understand the basics of pre-test risk and how to incorporate results to get post-test risk.
- Understand the basics of pharmacologic stress agents (mechanism of action, administration, safety).
- Understand the protocols used with perfusion tracers, how it is tailored to imaging need (patient-centered imaging).
- Gain knowledge regarding protocols for assessing myocardial viability.
- Recognize the role of SPECT on ventricular function assessment.
- Identify appropriate imaging studies for indication.
- Integrate perfusion findings to clinical and EKG data.
- Identify a high-risk study.
- Gain knowledge of AUC and its application.
