Nuclear Medicine in FUO/IUO: Why Are Children Different?
April 16 – 09:00 – April 17 – 12:30 CEST
This 1,5-day course focuses on the growing field of integrated imaging in infectious and inflammatory diseases in children, with an emphasis on hybrid imaging.
The panelists will introduce the participants to the specific aspects of paediatric patients in this growing field, covering the most relevant topics of the clinical scenario and the technical options available in daily practice.
The participants will be confronted with frequent and less frequent disease pattern, with ample opportunity for discussing clinical indications and image interpretation criteria.
The continuing interaction between paediatrician, paediatric radiologist and nuclear medicine physician will show the practical implementation of an integrated approach, with particular attention to radiation dose reduction and optimisation.
