Over the past decade, the International Atomic Energy Agency, part of the United Nations family of organizations,
has conducted a number of surveys of worldwide cardiac imaging practice. Cardiac imaging laboratories worldwide have been impacted by COVID-19. The INCAPS team believes that it is important to understand the impact that COVID-19 has had on nuclear cardiology and cardiac CT practice worldwide. We have developed a survey to assess this impact and would be grateful for your participation if you practice in either of these modalities.

You can complete the survey here before May 30^th!

The American Society of Nuclear Cardiology (ASNC) has developed a virtual educational program. These webinars are intended as a platform to promote the value of cardiovascular molecular imaging. We expect molecular imaging researchers and trainees to interact and learn from each other, and network virtually with global leaders in cardiovascular molecular imaging. The format is highly interactive with an expert discussant catalyzing the discussion and time for attendee questions.
