Cedars-Sinai Advances in Nuclear Cardiology, Cardiac CT and MRI 2026 — case review with the experts
Cedars-Sinai Advances in Nuclear Cardiology, Cardiac CT and MRI 2026 is the 38th Annual Case Review with the Experts, held from 23 to 25 January 2026 at the Harvey Morse Conference Center in Los Angeles. It teaches value-based cardiac imaging through cases — SPECT and PET perfusion, blood flow quantitation, coronary CTA and FFRct, plaque analysis, amyloid and sarcoid imaging — in 4 videos and 53 PDFs (6.07 GB), covering 52 topics that map to the CBNC and CBCCT board blueprints.

What you’ll be able to do
- Choose between PET and SPECT, and between flurpiridaz and rubidium
- Quantify and report myocardial blood flow and flow reserve on PET, SPECT and MRI
- Use coronary CTA, FFRct and quantitative plaque analysis to guide management
- Diagnose cardiac amyloidosis and sarcoidosis with PYP, PET and CMR
- Cut radiation and contrast exposure without losing diagnostic quality
- Apply AI to CTA plaque, SPECT reading and calcium scoring
Inside the course
Nuclear cardiology in 2026
Flurpiridaz gets unusual depth — tracer properties, lab set-up, exercise versus pharmacologic stress and case-based reading — beside stress-first SPECT, integrated visual and quantitative analysis, AI-assisted SPECT reports and myocardial blood flow measurement across modalities.
Cedars-Sinai Advances in Nuclear Cardiology, Cardiac CT and MRI 2026: CT sessions
Coronary CTA is covered from the chest-pain guideline evidence through asymptomatic patients, known CAD with stents and grafts, women, anomalies and bridging, and ischemia testing with FFRct — then structural heart CT, Watchman and TMVR planning, photon-counting CT and a debate on whether CTA will replace stress testing.
Amyloid, sarcoid, viability and microvascular disease
PYP acquisition and quantitation, amyloid-specific PET tracers and MRI in amyloidosis, FDG PET and CMR in sarcoidosis, viability imaging and microvascular disease, closing with value-based imaging and a game-show review.
