It's been another great day for #ASNC2022! Very proud to be one of the social media moderators for two sessions today, both great sessions. #CVNuc @MyASNC

Neat data from Dr. Schindler, PET-MR for and vulnerable plaque. Epidemiology of this would interesting, expecting to see higher MACE rates, but inflammation can be diffuse in the coronaries. Treat that plaque invasively or treat them all with medication? #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Interesting data about use of PET-MR in cardiac sarcoidosis. PET and MR (separately) are very helpful for determining diagnosis and prognosis of cardiac sarcoidosis. Interesting to get them together. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

A question I always have about these dual systems is what is the advantage of having the two modalities together, when you can image separately and co-register the images. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Impressive improvements in imaging with digital PET: better TOF, dramatic increase in spatial resolution, less detector saturation, better dynamic imaging, and enabling dose reduction. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Dr. Karp reviewing how multiple improvements in PET technology, particularly whole-body coverage PET, has increased sensitivity and resolution, improving the results of dynamic imaging. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Interesting data from Dr. Auer for use of 360-degree CZT for quantification in cardiac amyloidosis, likely would be helpful for diagnosis/staging/prognosis. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

CZT has already proven very valuable in reducing radiation dose due to high sensitivity for photon detection. Also makes perfusion quantitation possible. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Dr. Auer is reviewing the impressive technology that is CZT detector imaging in session 311 at #ASNC2022. Can get PET-like results with SPECT tracers. #CVNuc @MyASNC

Enjoying another great day of talks at #ASNC2022! Looking forward to being one of the social media moderators for session 311 on new technologies in SPECT and PET. #CVNuc @MyASNC

Interesting to try to explain why this patient has FDG avid lymphadenopathy. Not typical for Dressler's as far as I am aware. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Completed MI would make Dressler's move up the differential diagnosis. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Continuing with session 306 at #ASNC2022, interesting that there is (likely) subacute stent thrombosis without much of the way of symptoms or STEMI on ECG. Suggests late presentation and completed MI. #CVNuc @MyASNC

Interesting to perform serial pericardiocentesis for fever after MI. Not my usual practice pattern. Purulent pericarditis is usually not subtle... #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Great point by Dr. Hogan to consider the broad differential of fever post MI, including Dressler's (not seen so frequently now in the era of rapid revascularization, so easy to forget about). #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Coronary stent infections are exceedingly rare, but should certainly consider in the right circumstances. #ASNC2022 #CVNuc @MyASNC
