Course Introduction
About this course
The purpose of this course is to enhance clinicians’ ability to select, interpret, and apply luminal imaging techniques in the evaluation of carotid artery disease. By strengthening imaging literacy and diagnostic accuracy, the course aims to support timely intervention, reduce stroke risk, and improve patient outcomes.
Luminal imaging plays a central role in the assessment of carotid artery disease — providing the diagnostic intelligence that drives intervention decisions and treatment planning.
This programme covers luminal imaging techniques applied to carotid artery disease — covering modality selection, image acquisition, interpretation principles, and integration with clinical decision-making.
Scope of the Course
What this course covers
This course focuses on luminal imaging techniques used in the assessment and management of carotid artery disease. It covers noninvasive and invasive imaging modalities that evaluate carotid artery anatomy, luminal narrowing, plaque characteristics, and hemodynamic significance, supporting accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Course Objectives & Outcomes
What you will achieve
By the end of this course, learners will have built core clinical competencies directly applicable to everyday practice — translating into safer, more confident, more effective patient care.
Each outcome below targets a specific dimension of luminal imaging practice — building the technical and interpretive fluency required for accurate carotid assessment.
01
Understand the pathophysiology and clinical significance of carotid artery disease
02
Describe the principles of luminal imaging and vascular anatomy of the carotid arteries
03
Identify and compare imaging modalities such as carotid duplex ultrasound, CT angiography (CTA), MR angiography (MRA), and digital subtraction angiography (DSA)
04
Interpret key imaging findings, including degree of stenosis, plaque morphology, and flow abnormalities
05
Recognize indications, advantages, and limitations of each imaging technique
06
Apply imaging results to guide clinical decision-making for medical, surgical, or endovascular management
