21st Annual Stanford Computed Tomography Workshop

Saturday, September 7, 2024, 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM


The Stanford CT Workshop has a Dual Purpose: The first purpose is to create a comprehensive full day educational event dedicated to enhancing the clinical skills and outline CT Imaging best practices for dedicated CT technologists as well as technologists within the organization that use CT imaging (Such as nuclear medicine technologists who perform PETCT and radiation therapists who use CT devices for radiotherapy planning). The second purpose is to perform on-boarding for the incoming radiology fellows and residents. The workshop will cover the legal aspects of radiation dose reporting, as well as discuss how the CT systems are being utilized to in daily operations. Finally, this is a great way for fellows and residents to interact with the technologists and begin to cultivate a relationship as we team up to deliver patient care in our organization.

1. Identify the CT equipment used at Stanford Health Care and each of its benefits when imaging specific patient populations.
2. Identify the safety features incorporated into the CT scanners and discuss how to lower a patient's radiation dose.
3. Recognize implicit bias and identify tools to address it when caring for the radiology patient.
4. Discuss contrast medium and injection strategies within the context of hemodynamics to optimize the visualization of different body organ systems.
