The course presents the concepts and do’s and don’ts in hybrid imaging, focusing on PET/CT and PET/MR in body (oncology) imaging and neuro imaging. There will be formal lectures on five days and hands-on workshops on 4 afternoons (one focusing on dementia imaging with PET) for case solving, grouping participants in groups of max. 3 per viewing station. Participants can make an individual choice of case discussion with focus on PET/CT – or case discussion with focus on PET/MR during hands-on workshop sessions.
