The need for Health Equity is one of the most important topics in the healthcare industry today. Although inequities and disparities in healthcare have been present for generations in the United States, the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the scope and depth of the problem in a way that could no longer be ignored. This course will define and discuss health equity and health disparities, explain why health equity is important, identify barriers to health equity, review government programs and policies that support health equity, and discuss best practices to promote health equity.

Join us as we utilize CT clinical scenarios to illustrate a variety of processing workflows pertaining to the Raw Data interface.

This course will provide in-depth information on which women can benefit most from breast ultrasound, as an adjunct to mammography; illustrate the complementary roles of mammography and ultrasound; and discuss the latest developments in breast ultrasound technology and their applications. We will also discuss proper equipment, system optimization and proper scanning techniques.

In this course, technologists will learn how technology has transformed the field of radiography. Topics include:

• How digital images are acquired
• The components of a digital detector
• Digital image processing
• How technique, SID, and collimation affect exposure index

In this course we will be discussing: the history of image processing, film screen processing, the evolution to digital processing (which includes both computed and digital), how to assess images and image quality, processing the pros and cons between each generation, and the future technologies being developed.

During this presentation, we’ll be covering Three different applications to get a complete Cardiac Workflow. We’ll start by scoring cardiac vessels, and then move into an application called Cardiac Multi Vessel. By the end of this presentation, we’ll demonstrate how to select the appropriate vessels for the exam, the criteria to score the vessels into one of the three guideline reporting data graphs, and the process to generate critical reports. Moving into the multi vessel analysis, we’ll select vessels and the branches, calculate stenosis, get a complete cardiac analysis to plaque scores, walking vessels, include 3D images, generate a report, and demonstrate how to send that report to PACS.
