2021年第35届国际超声造影进展大会(Bubble Conference)

2021年第35届国际超声造影进展大会(Bubble Conference)将于2021年9月30日至10月1日在美国芝加哥举行，会议由国际超声造影学会(ICUS)主办。ICUS年度会议是国际上最早专注于对比增强超声（CEUS）成像和治疗的会议。ICUS年会是跨专业CEUS研究和实践的单一最重要的全球论坛。会议教师包括世界上一流的临床医生、生理学家、工程师和在心脏病学、放射学、血管医学、妇科、胃肠病学和在身体成像专业领域工作的其他科学家。参与者包括北美和南美、欧洲、亚洲和中东的医生、科学家、护士、超声技师、技术人员和相关辅助医疗专业人员。

国际超声造影学会(ICUS)是世界上专业致力于超声造影（CEUS）医学影像技术专业的唯一协会。ICUS的目标包括：促进对比增强超声（CEUS）在具有不同医学概况和疾病状态的患者中的安全和有效的使用；提供一个全球跨学科论坛，促进CEUS应用的教育、研究和应用发展-宣译；促进医学专家和科学家在心脏病学、放射学、胃肠医学、血管医学、内科学、肝脏学和其他医学专业和基础科学学科领域的开放和动态的沟通。促进公众对患者安全有效的使用CEUS的教育；在医学界建立关于CEUS的临床益处的意识。

Learning Objectives
Learn the basics of CEUS in clinical practice through hands-on teaching of CEUS indication.

Recognize the global use of contrast ultrasound as a safe, ionizing-free, economical imaging modality for diagnostics in cardiology and whole-body imaging for improved patient care.

Interpret the clinical applications of contrast ultrasound as outlined by the professional societies: American Society of Echocardiography (ASE), the European Association of Echocardiography (EAE), the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC), the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology(EFSUMB, the European Medical Association (EMA) and the World Federation of Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (WFUMB).

Review new therapeutic applications of contrast ultrasound.

Discuss the ongoing clinical trials using contrast ultrasound in pre-clinical research environments.

Distinguish and demonstrate novel, emerging scientific, research applications of contrast ultrasound techniques and application.

Program Information
The Illinois State Medical Society designates this live activity for a maximum of 17.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the Illinois State Medical Society (ISMS) and Advances in Contrast Ultrasound (ACU). The ISMS is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Educational Format
The symposium will consist of sessions designed to introduce relevant clinical issues, provide directed, spirited, open-ended discussions, and develop a group consensus. Each of the highlighted presentations will be followed by an open and lively, yet focused, discussion. Questions initiated by the chair will be directed to the faculty and audience at large. The discussion period will include opinions, scientific data, and supporting positions provided by the faculty. Slides or video segments will be used to support positions on specific issues. The chairs will close each session by summarizing the opinion of the group.

Target Audience
This program is designed for cardiologists, interventional clinical cardiologists, radiologists, vascular specialists, biomedical engineers, and research scientists, sonographers, nurses and other allied health professionals across the US and worldwide.
