Comment: | Excellent course that covered cardiac CT from the clinical and technical aspects. It's great for those who have no experience in cardiac CT and is equally great for experienced readers who would like to read with the experts and share great rare cases with medical and surgical correlation. It definitely worths its fee. |

Comment: | This course is taught by cardiologists and therefore designed more for cardiologists than radiologists (which I am one), but still an excellent course nonetheless.All the teachers are excellent and have their own personalities. Course lecture outline is perfect for an introduction into this subject. Ed Shapiro is an excellent story teller and generous with his knowledge.Thoroughly enjoyed it. |

Comment: | Absolutely fantastic course. Well worth the price. Dr. Shapiro and Bush are enthusiastic, knowledgeable and entertaining teachers. I started with no knowledge at all about CT, and came away feeling prepared enough to take the CT boards and perform CTA, not to mention incorporating the modality more frequently into my practice. |

|
Comment: | The course offers a mostly complete overview of cardiac CT for beginners, which also seems to serves as a good way to prepare for the board exam -- granted that I have not taken this exam yet. Course content, while not always perfectly organized, does cover the essential components and excels most in the area where it should: practical considerations for acquiring and analyzing these studies. There is ample opportunity for hands-on learning and one-on-one Q&A, which is another major strength of the course. There are no major areas of deficiency. |

Comment: | The CT Practicum at JHU is an excellent 5 day course. Being a novice at cardiac CT and calcium scoring, I arrived at the course with no real knowledge of the technique and capabilities of the procedure. The course really explains every aspect of coronary CTA and calcium scoring. The material is presented in a very hands-on manner, with the majority of time rightfully spent reading cases and learning how to manipulate the images and software (in which there is a tremendous learning curve). The material was also presented in a way that would allow for cardiology (noninvasive or interventional) or radiology to successfully understand and utilize the technique. I would recommend this course to any cardiologist, cardiology fellow, or radiologist who is interested in coronary CTA or calcium scoring. |

Comment: | excellent cases, with interesting discussion of future directions of the field. there was a good mix of theory and practice with more emphasis on the latter. the independent evaluation of cases was helpful with comparison later with "official reads". we did five of these but I would encourage 2 sessions of this as I found it very helpful. |
