No continuing education / Category A credit assigned to this presentation.

Presenter: Jonathan Abele, MD, FRCPC

Learning Objectives:
1. To learn about the physiology of 18F-DOPA PET/CT imaging and how it compares with 18F-FDG PET/CT
2. To learn about the useful clinical indications for 18F-DOPA PET/CT imaging
3. To see real case examples of 18F-DOPA PET/CT imaging at the University of Alberta and discover how this tracer impacts clinical care
4. Using 18F-DOPA at the University of Alberta as an example, to understand how novel radiotracers are introduced into clinical practice in Canada
