COURSE OBJECTIVES • Hybrid PET-imaging is now recognised as an indispensable tool in multiple facets of oncology management, with clinical indications extending to dementia, cardiology and infection. • Hybrid imaging enables combined anatomical and functional information, and with the development of targeted molecular imaging probes, it has a key role in advancing personalised medicine and optimised patient care. • This symposium and hands-on workshop jointly organised by the Department of Nuclear Medicine, University Hospital Zurich and Nuclear Medicine Society Singapore aims to provide reporting nuclear physicians a comprehensive update of the applications of PET/CT in clinical practice, and the evolving applications of PET/MR.
PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS • One and a half days of lectures on the latest tracers and applications for Oncologic, Cardiac and Neurology PET/CT and PET/MRI • Lunchtime symposium by GE • One day hands on workshop, reviewing PET/CT and PET/MRI cases with local and overseas experts * Hands on workshop places are limited to 60.
