Save The Date For ISCT 2020

This year ISCT is moving our annual CT symposium to Washington, D.C. Be sure to save the date for the spectacular two-day event held August 21st and 22nd, 2020. We will be bringing together the top experts in computed tomography from all over the world. With lectures and workshops built for radiologists, physicians, technologists, medical physicists, engineers, residents, fellows, physician assistants, and nurses, the ISCT’s annual CT symposium is the gold standard in CT education and something we look forward to year-round.

Radiology CME Course Highlight: Managing The CT Operation

The challenges faced by a radiologist in a managerial position are much different from those faced in the reading room, and in order to effectively leverage your leadership role you need to be prepared to not only identify core challenges within your department, but also know how to appropriately navigate them. Our radiology CME course, “Managing The CT Operation”, equips you to do just that.

ISCT 2019 Session Highlight: Skeletal CT

We’re excited for all of this year’s sessions, but want to highlight one of particular interest for many attendees: our MSK session. Organized by Dr. Christopher Beaulieu, Chief of Musculoskeletal Imaging at the Stanford University Medical Center, the skeletal session will provide a comprehensive overview of the latest applications, technologies, and innovations within this dynamic subspecialty area of CT.

Star Wars Characters as Members of Your Radiology Team

The first place to start and the easiest place to get buy-in for a more collaborative work process is within your radiology department. In your day-to-day experiences, it might not be as easy to see how very interlaced your team needs to become. To put this whole “CT as a Team Sport” concept into perspective for you, we drew some comparisons between your computed tomography radiology team and the most epic team in all of the galaxy.

First Batch Of Preliminary Topics Released For ISCT 2018

There are so many changes happening in CT right now, far too many for any individual to keep up with on their own. That’s why our program directors have been hard at work identifying the most important and innovative topics in the industry and compiling a program for ISCT 2018 that’s comprehensive, tactical, and dives deeply into each issue. We’re still finalizing many of our talks, but here’s a look at some of our overarching session topics and the preliminary program for the 2018 symposium:

6 Reasons To Attend ISCT's TrifeCTa Symposium

This June hundreds of industry experts will gather together in San Francisco at ISCT17 to exchange ideas, build relationships, and deep dive into the hot-button challenges and innovations facing the world of CT. This will be the 19th time we've held our annual international symposium on CT. For almost two decades now we've gathered hundreds of radiologists, technologists, medical physicists, and other members of the radiology world together to hear new computed tomography discussions on technical development, radiation, contrast enhancement, multi-energy CT, etc.

It's an incredible chance for education and growth, both personally and professionally. Every radiology conference has its benefits, here are 6 reasons to attend ours:

What's In Store For The Future Of CT

If there’s one thing that’s clear at this point to everyone in our industry, it’s that the future of CT is looking incredibly bright. We’ve seen so many big changes over the past few years, and it’s an incredibly exciting time for our industry. Every day we’re uncovering more about CT, every day new innovations are put in place as radiologists continue to pioneer the frontier of CT technology. It leaves just one question on the tip of everyone’s tongue: “what comes next?”

It’s the most exciting question facing our industry, and it’s one everyone is trying to answer. We were lucky enough to get a chance to sit down and talk with some of our speakers at ISCT16 about what they think is in store for the future of CT, and let me tell you, some of the answers are pretty exciting.
