CTA Congenital Academy: CCT Imaging in Complex CHD
 

CTA Congenital Academy Conference Agenda
CCT imaging for surgical decision making in complex CHD

Sunday Sep 20: 1 – 4 pm. Workstation orientation: 20 cases

5 cases: coronary artery (AAOCA, ALCAPA, stenosis s/p ASO, KD, coronary fistula)
5 cases: biventricular circulation (TOF, TGA, s/p atrial/arterial switch, s/p Rastelli, CC-TGA)  
5 cases: shunt lesions: (ASD, VSD, ductal dependent CHD)
5 cases: single ventricle (neonatal single V, s/p Norwood/Sano, s/p Glenn, s/p Fontan)

September 21-23rd

FORMAT: show complex CHD cases where CCT imaging helped in decision making. Cases presentation to include

  1.  clinical scenario ad prior diagnostics,

  2.  clinical indication for CT and details of acquisition

  3. CT findings

  4. Surgical decision-making discussion

  5. post op course and/or imaging if available.
