COURSE INFORMATION

This course is aimed at residents in their 4^th and 5^th year of training in radiology and recently board-certified radiologists interested in Chest Imaging. It is strictly adhered to Level II of the European Training Curriculum and is designed to provide the essentials of current state-of the-art imaging, diagnostic algorithms and their appropriateness, in the initial staging of lung cancer and follow-up of systemic therapies. It is also important to become familiar with atypical presentations of lung cancer and the management of incidental findings in thoracic oncology. CT has a major role in patients with severe haemoptysis, a potentially life-threatening condition. Finally, CT can approach the accurate diagnosis of diffuse cystic disease of the lung.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

To learn about initial CT staging, management of incidental findings and assessment of response to treatment on CT in lung cancer patients
To learn how CT helps reduce differential diagnoses in cystic lung disease.
To learn about the role of CT in patients with severe haemoptysis
