Cardiovascular Imaging Expert Case Review

Challenge yourself with our Cardiovascular Cases from Dr. Michael Atalay!

Join Dr. Michael Atalay (Brown University) as he reviews a series of cardiovascular cases involving the thorax. Read alongside him as he provides essential interpretation pearls and pitfalls on these cases, which will help you gain confidence in making these decisions in your own practice.

Listen to his advice on the most helpful CT and MRI imaging sequences to use & when to use them, and his process for narrowing down a diagnosis by ruling out differentials. Dr. Atalay also includes helpful breakdowns of cardiac anatomy (myocardium, arteries, pericardium, and more) and diagnostic definitions. 

Review common patient scenarios including:

• A patient who presents with acute chest pain
• A male patient with acute chest pain, along with elevated troponin and CPK-MB
• A female who presents with progressive dyspnea on exertion for 1 month
• A patient with chest pain, shortness of breath, and tachycardia 
• A 52 year old with distended neck veins and shortness of breath 
• …and more!

Expert Case Review Overview

Expert Case Reviews offer a high yield, case-focused learning module that will help you gain confidence interpreting advanced imaging cases. 

Read alongside Radiology mentors who want to help you fine-tune your search patterns and work through your list of differential diagnoses. 

Review at your own pace by utilizing the video player features to pause, rewind, and slow down the video to work through the case at your own pace.

After you’re done, check out these additional Cardiac Mastery Courses for further in-depth case review:

• Fundamentals of Cardiac MRI
• Cardiac MRI of Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
• Cardiac CT in Suspected CAD

Course materials were developed from Dr. Atalay’s Case Review Live webinar in August 2021. The recorded session has been converted into this on-demand, microlearning Radiology CME Course that you can work through on your own time!
