UCSF Emergency And Trauma Imaging 2021 (Videos)

In UCSF Emergency and Trauma Imaging, speakers deliver case-based lectures that highlight imaging features across the major organ systems, as well as the latest imaging techniques increasingly used in the emergency/trauma setting: standard CT, MR, and US, along with dual energy CT, quantitative diffusion imaging, and combined MR/XR imaging for acute stroke care.

This continuing medical education course — a collaborative effort between UCSF Medical Center and Zuckerberg SF General Hospital and Trauma Center — is available online so you can earn CME credits whenever, wherever. It will help you to better:

Implement the latest imaging protocols for rapid assessment of complex acute polytrauma patients
Distinguish between common anatomic variants, injury mimics and common thoracic vascular emergencies
Identify key imaging features of the most common emergent brain, spine, head & neck, and abdominopelvic pathologies
Differentiate between emergent and non-emergent indications for interventional radiology
Use search patterns to identify frequently missed musculoskeletal trauma findings
Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this CME activity, the participant will be able to:

Implement the latest imaging protocols and state-of-the art techniques for rapid assessment of complex acute polytrauma patients
Distinguish between common anatomic variants, injury mimics and common thoracic vascular emergencies including acute aortic injury and pulmonary embolism
Recognize key imaging features and updated classification systems relevant to the most common emergent brain, spine and head & neck pathologies
Differentiate between emergent and non-emergent indications for interventional radiology consultation, and understand the role of IR in diagnosis and treatment of common medical emergencies
Identify the key imaging features of common abdominopelvic pathologies encountered in the emergency and trauma settings
Utilize search patterns to identify frequently missed musculoskeletal trauma findings
Intended Audience

This course is intended for radiologists and all medical professionals who will benefit from a greater understanding of emergency and trauma imaging.
