ASNC Nuclear Cardiology Core Curriculum 2023 The Nuclear Cardiology Core Curriculum is a new program led by 18 experts in the field who will help you expand your nuclear cardiology fundamentals through a series of 8 courses featuring 18 presentations with case-based questions.

Learner Objectives

After participating in this Nuclear Cardiology Core Curriculum, learners should be able to:

• Define basic principles of SPECT and MUGA acquisition/display including tomographic views and planes.
• Define and understand properties and use of standard perfusion tracers.
• Gain knowledge of principles of stress testing, contraindications, and when to choose exercise versus pharmacologic.
• Understand the basics of pre-test risk and how to incorporate results to get post-test risk.
• Understand the basics of pharmacologic stress agents (mechanism of action, administration, safety).
• Understand the protocols used with perfusion tracers, how it is tailored to imaging need (patient-centered imaging).
• Gain knowledge regarding protocols for assessing myocardial viability.
• Recognize the role of SPECT on ventricular function assessment.
• Identify appropriate imaging studies for indication.
• Integrate perfusion findings to clinical and EKG data.
• Identify a high-risk study.
• Gain knowledge of AUC and its application.
