The programme focused on the enhancement of patient safety and quality of patient care through the optimisation of cardiac CT.  It included updates on current practice and future indications for cardiac CT and congenital heart disease, together with information on thoracic indications, with current and future applications.

Speakers provided the most up-to-date clinical information on cardiothoracic CT, with an in-depth look at optimising processes and examining the most current indications and evidence for cardiac CT.
