Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide and it is still one of the leading causes of morbi-mortality, therefore being a major concern. 2-FDG PET/CT is commonly used in the clinical management of patients with breast cancer, with significant impact on clinical management. Currently, there is robust evidence supporting the usefulness of […]
The webinar will cover the most relevant methodological aspects of nuclear medicine techniques in paediatric nephrourology, with particular attention to the choice of the radiotracer, the correct patient preparation, and the acquisition protocol. Some typical cases will show the main points of image processing and results visualization. The clinical part will deal with hydronephrosis and […]

This course provides a comprehensive overview of nuclear medicine imaging of coronary artery disease. General aspects, details of radiotracers utilised, examination protocols and case examples of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using PET and SPECT will be discussed at the event. The focus here will be on the quantification of data (e.g. abnormality scores, myocardial blood […]
The rapid development in machine learning has generated new artificial intelligence (AI) based methods for improving dosimetry within nuclear medicine. This webinar will present the current status of AI within the dosimetry workflow for targeted radionuclide therapy. First, AI methods for reducing SPECT acquisition times, noise reduction and scatter correction will be covered. Thereafter, AI […]

Target Audience Learning Objectives Faculty Registration Details Event Overview
While PET imaging with radionuclides such as F18 and Ga68 have proven to provide high quality diagnostic imaging, imaging with other radionuclides can be more challenging. Zr-89 is one such radionuclide. Although Zr-89 has advantageous labelling properties for cell imaging and the imaging of monoclonal antibodies, the radionuclide is non-ideal imaging qualities mostly due to […]
With the arrival of new therapeutic tracers, nuclear medicine has a new arsenal to treat metastatic bone pain. This presentation aims to give the keys to define the place of nuclear medicine among other treatment modalities (external beam therapy, medical treatment, chemotherapy). Learning Objectives: Refresh knowledge on the pathophysiology of pain and present the opportunities […]
The present course aims to describe the current status, in terms of diagnosis and therapy for gynecological cancers. All the gynecological malignancies (i.e., ovary cancer, endometrial cancer, cervical and vaginal cancer) will be evaluated from the oncological and from diagnostic point of view, with a major emphasis on the role of nuclear medicine, both in […]
Bone imaging is a dynamic field marked in recent years by the appearance of new acquisitions and new tracers. Concerning benign diseases, this course will detail the new blood pool SPECT acquisitions and will provide the necessary bases for their interpretation, both semiological and anatomical. Concerning oncology, a review of FDG and non-FDG tracers will […]
This self-paced online course will offer a comprehensive exploration of the anatomy, physiology, and diagnostic tools related to parathyroid glands disorders. The course will cover a range of topics, including the regulation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion and his mechanisms of action, etiology, clinical manifestations, and notably the diagnostic approaches ( laboratory and imaging), and […]
