WELCOME LETTER | SCCT2019 | 5
DEAR DISTINGUISHED COLLEAGUES AND GUESTS,
The Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography (SCCT), along with the SCCT Annual Scientific
Meeting Program Committee, welcomes you to this year’s Annual Scientific Meeting (SCCT2019). We
are excited to have you join us in Baltimore, Maryland.
This year’s program offers many opportunities to network with distinguished leaders and colleagues
in the field through a wide range of sessions and social events. These include case presentations,
Read with the Experts, debates and sessions on multimodality imaging and CT in structural heart
disease. In addition, there are five networking sessions where you can connect with colleagues from
around the globe, as well as a chance to have fun when SCCT heads to Camden Yards to watch the
Baltimore Orioles play baseball. The Plenary Session will feature the Arthur S. Agatston Awardee
Dr. Roger Blumenthal, as well as Gold Awardees Drs. Jonathon Leipsic and Gilbert Raff. We will also
introduce a new award named in honor of Dr. Stephan Achenbach, who will be its inaugural recipient.
Please plan on attending the Cocktail Reception on Friday, July 12 from 6:15 – 7:45 PM in the Exhibit
Hall — complimentary with SCCT2019 registration. This is a great networking opportunity.
In the Exhibit Hall, you will also find many opportunities to gain hands-on experience while hearing
about the newest products and latest trends from industry experts and representatives. Town Hall
debates and poster and Rapid Fire eposter presentations offer multiple opportunities to learn about
cutting edge research in the field. A special mini-symposium on Social Media will be held on Friday,
July 12 from 3:10 - 4:45 PM and will explore how to leverage social media to become better educated
on and better connected to cardiovascular CT. We encourage you to take advantage of these learning
opportunities.
Thank you for choosing to attend SCCT2019. We hope that your attendance provides you with a
creative and educational exchange of ideas that result in a worthwhile and personally rewarding
experience.
Sincerely,
WELCOME TO BALTIMORE

select number of early career radiologists
and cardiologists. Early career physicians and
scientists who have completed a cardiovascular
CT imaging training program within the last
four years were encouraged to apply. From
the submissions, five finalists were selected to
present on Friday, July 12 from 1:30 – 3 PM. The
winners will receive monetary prizes.
13TH ANNUAL CANON YOUNG INVESTIGATOR AWARDS (YIA)The 13th Annual Canon Young Investigator

STATEMENT OF NEED Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause
of death in the United States and imposes
an ever increasing burden on healthcare
systems. Rapidly changing technology and the
criteria for its use continue to be at the forefront
in the diagnosis and treatment of patients
presenting with possible cardiovascular disease.
Due to advancing technologies in cardiovascular
imaging, it is essential that we close the
knowledge, competence, and performance
gaps by bringing together experts in the field to
provide peer-to-peer education and interactive
discussion through case-based, didactic, and
interactive sessions. Cardiologists, radiologists,
technologists, and other clinicians with an
interest in cardiovascular disease will benefit
from the varied formats at SCCT2019. SCCT has
designed the SCCT2019 — 14th Annual Scientific
Meeting to address and narrow the practice gaps
of its members.
OVERVIEW AND OBJECTIVESThe SCCT2019 Annual Scientific Meeting is
designed to engage physicians and healthcare
professionals interpreting cardiovascular CT in a
comprehensive exploration of the most current
developments in the field of cardiovascular CT
principles, methodologies, appropriateness
criteria, and clinical practice.
Didactic lectures, image-based case examples,
and research in cardiovascular CT are designed
to increase the competence and performance of
the physician and technologist performing and
interpreting cardiovascular
CT. The Annual Scientific Meeting will focus
on the technological advances, as well as
the potential applications and limitations of
cardiovascular CT.
» Discuss with colleagues the parameters
which result in maximum image quality
while minimizing radiation exposure
during cardiovascular CT.
» Identify potential common image
artifacts which contribute to
inappropriate analysis of cardiovascular
CT scans.
» Determine when an alternative imaging
method would improve the diagnosis of a
specific cardiovascular anomaly.
» Critically evaluate those data which
indicate potential applications of
cardiovascular CT in other patient studies.
» Evaluate the emerging research in
cardiovascular CT to determine its
possible role in changing the
current evidence-based protocols or
stimulating additional research.
» Discuss the appropriate use of
cardiovascular CT with colleagues
and patients.

You are cordially invited to a symposium at SCCT 2019 for a discussion on:
Innovations to improve cardiacCT clinical quality and accessThe success of a medical technique requires more than its clinical superiority. In the management of coronary artery and structural heart diseases, through the perspective of both MDs and RTs, we look at how dedicated cardiovascular CT scanners, as well as scanners in outpatient and emergency centers, can impact clinical, operational, and financial outcomes.
