$48. Includes dinner. Part of CWRU’s Lifelong Learning program. Lecture starts at 6pm.

Peter Faulhaber, Professor of Radiology, CWRU; Director, Clinical PET University Hospitals

Where once there were just X-rays, now there is a wide range of imaging technologies applicable to different tissues and different diagnostic purposes. In this session, we will learn the latest about Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET). There are even combined machines, such as PET/CT. What are they? How are they used, alone or in combinations in oncology, neurology, and cardiology? What does the future hold for medical imaging?
