SCIENTIFIC MEETING

Marriott Mystic Hotel & Spa Groton, Connecticut November 3-5, 2017

MEETING DESCRIPTIONThe Annual Scientific Meeting of the Greater New York and New England Chapters of the SNMMI is a continuing education course designed for nuclear medicine physicians, radiologists, technologists, and scientists. Nationally recognized faculty will provide attendees with information that will enhance clinical practice. This year’s program will review nuclear medicine applications to such fields as cardiology, neurology, oncology, and therapy. Advances in topics such as PET, PET/CT, SPECT/CT, MIBG imaging, neuromolecular imaging, PET/MRI and molecular targeting and therapy will also be included.

TARGET AUDIENCE This meeting is intended for all nuclear medicine physicians, scientists, physicists, technologists, and nursing professionals.

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVESAt the conclusion of this activity, the participant will be able to:1. Discuss the use of new image agents for diagnosis and staging of prostate cancer.2. Discuss the metabolic response to therapies for prostate cancer.3. Discuss the latest techniques and radiopharmaceuticals available for use in neuro-molecular

imaging. 4. Discuss the latest topics and issues facing the field of nuclear medicine and the initiatives and

programs being implemented by the SNMMI to support the field.5. Discuss MIBG therapy in the treatment of pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma.6. Discuss the use of radioiodine imaging techniques to enhance detection of locoregional and

metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer.7. Discuss the latest techniques used in pediatric nuclear medicine.8. Identify interesting findings that may be visualized on a SPECT or PET study.9. Discuss the use of peptide receptor radiotherapy of neuroendocrine tumors in relation to other

therapies.10. Discuss Lu-117 therapy for the treatment of neuroendocrine tumors. 11. Discuss the Lugano Classification and its use in staging and response for the assessment of

lymphomas.12. Discuss the imaging response to modulation therapy in oncology.13. Discuss technical considerations when performing cardiac PET myocardial perfusion imaging.14. Discuss the use of PET/CT and PET/MRI in the diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis.15. Identify artifacts, errors and interesting findings associated with various nuclear medicine imaging

procedures. 16. Discuss the use of translational molecular imaging.17. Discuss the use of imaging for the diagnosis of primary and metastatic hepatics tumors.18. Discuss the use of Y-90 therapies for planning and post therapy.19. Discuss considerations for stress first myocardial perfusion imaging.20. Discuss techniques available for the modernization of SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging.

NUCLEAR MEDICINE TECHNOLOGISTS: VOICE CATEGORY A CREDITS The SNMMI, through its Verification of Involvement in Continuing Education (VOICE) program, has approved this meeting to offer continuing education hours (CEHs), final hour count TBD closer to the meeting. VOICE-approved credit is recognized by most licensure states and by the NMTCB and ARRT as Category A credit. Participants will receive CE credit for those sessions at which they were present a minimum of 80% of the session.

PHYSICIAN: CONTINUING MEDICAL EDUCATION This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint sponsorship of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Inc. (SNMMI) and the New England and Greater New York Chapters, SNMMI. The SNMMI is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

SELF-ASSESSMENT MODULE (SAM) CREDITS In addition to CME credits, physician attendees will have the opportunity to earn SAM credits. Physicians must attend the entire session to earn SAM credits and complete the post-activity online assessment.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTSThe Greater New York/New England Chapters of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging are pleased to announce the creation of a $300 award honoring the memory of our colleague Dr. Hussein Abdel Dayem, to be awarded for the poster judged to have the greatest scientific merit during our upcoming meeting in Mystic CT on November 3-5, 2017.

We encourage all chapter members to submit their scientific abstracts and case reports to Rachel Powsner MD (Rachel.Powsner@va.gov) of the New England Chapter or to Meera Raghavan MD (mraghavan@northwell.edu) of the Greater New York Chapter by Monday, October 23, 2017. All accepted abstracts will be published in Clinical Nuclear Medicine.

Abstracts should be submitted as Microsoft Word documents, with a maximum word count of 500, and be divided into headings of Background, Methods, Results, and Conclusion. Embedded black and white images, graphs and/or tables are acceptable. The winner of the abstract judged by a panel of experts to be of the highest scientific merit will be announced at the conclusion of the poster presentation session on Saturday, November 4.

Please note: All accepted presentations will be in poster format (4’ vertical x 8’ horizontal boards).
