SUMMARY:Hartford\, CT - Quality Bone Densitometry For Clinicians
DESCRIPTION:Quality Bone Densitometry: Performance\, Interpretation\, and Clinical Application for Clinicians\nAn Osteoporosis Essentials Course of the International Society for Clinical Densitometry & International Osteoporosis Foundation\nThe core elements of this course serve to educate healthcare providers about bone densitometry and osteoporosis and to apply standard practices to assure quality performance and interpretation of bone densitometry studies. The course is offered in two parts. The first day sets the standard to perform Quality DXA interpretation. Day 2 focuses on the clinical assessment\, prevention\, treatment and management of osteoporosis and the essential role that high-quality DXA plays in treatment initiation decisions and monitoring of osteoporotic patients. Individuals may register for either part of the course separately or as a combined program. \nPrerequisite videos are included in the registration fees. Access to that content will be made available to registrants through the ISCD online education website 30 days prior to the course. \n[efsbutton style=”” size=”” color_class=”” align=”left” type=”link” target=”false” title=”register now” link=”https://my.iscd.org/Events/Calendar-Of-Events/Registration-Start?MeetingId=04bfe141-08f7-ea11-a815-000d3a8b33f5″]\nCourse Faculty: Dr. Sanford Baim\, MD\, FACR\, CCD and Steven M.

SUMMARY:Hartford\, CT - Quality Bone Densitometry For Technologists
DESCRIPTION:Quality Bone Densitometry: Performance\, Interpretation\, and Clinical Application for Technologists\nAn Osteoporosis Essentials Course of the International Society for Clinical Densitometry & International Osteoporosis Foundation\nThe core elements of this program focus on performing quality DXA scans\, dissecting the data and applying this knowledge to a technologist’s role in patient care. This course\, which focuses on quality DXA\, is innovative\, interactive and informative. The course emphasizes technical excellence in the performance\, analysis\, and troubleshooting of bone densitometry scans. The course will provide standard practices and applications to raise the quality of DXA scan procedures and their impact on patient care. This is achieved by enhancing awareness of the technical expertise involved in performing bone densitometry and applying protocols to address everyday challenges. The course focuses on the considerable impact that a technologist plays in the delivery of quality DXA\, and how that influences patient management. \nPrerequisite and Optional videos are included in the registration fees.
