ISCT 2019 is less than one month away, and our 21st annual international CT conference is shaping up to be one of the most impactful yet. The faculty are talented, the program is rich and multifaceted, and the venue is beautiful. This year we’re putting an emphasis on 5 CT subspecialty areas of interest, with one session devoted to each of our primary subspecialties: chest, neuro, cardiovascular, skeletal, and abdominal. Additional sessions dedicated to pediatric imaging, CT technologies, and workflow/reporting round out the 2019 program, providing a comprehensive update on every aspect of CT interest. 

We’re excited for all of this year’s sessions, but want to shine a special spotlight on one of particular interest for many attendees: our pediatric session. Pediatric imaging is a huge focus in the radiology world right now, with initiatives like the Image Wisely campaign and others drawing attention to pediatric imaging guidelines, dose optimization, and the avoidance of unnecessary imaging procedures.

Pediatric CT At ISCT 2019

The ISCT 2019 Pediatric Session has an exciting lineup of speakers which includes fellowship trained radiologists from leading Children’s Hospitals. In keeping with the theme for this year, the session will cover a wide array of topics including protocol optimization for body CT, standardized reporting for tumors, and advanced applications for cardiovascular and airway imaging in children. The session is tailored to provide the most up to date information about CT applications for practicing Radiologists, fellows, residents, and technologists. 

The Talks

  • Do We Really Need Oral Contrast for Abdominal CT in Pediatric Patients?

  • Dual Energy Applications for Pediatric Body CT

  • Standardized Reporting for Pediatric Abdominal Tumors: Emphasis on Neuroblastoma and Hepatoblastoma
