Great document & stellar authors from #EACVI, leading the field on how multimodality should be done. A must read. European Society of Cardiology We should learn from them.

We need a path towards ACGME accreditation for training in Cardiovascular Imaging!!

Patel Abbas (Reza) Emaminia João Cavalcante Cardiovascular Imaging Advocacy Group Many unfortunate stories. Our #ACCImaging Council needs to address this. I volunteered myself and applied to the Council & if selected, this will be my first item in agenda to bring up. I will tirelessly advocate for our imagers. We need less consensus statements & more action!!

Patel Abbas (Reza) Emaminia Ahmad Masri João Cavalcante Cardiovascular Imaging Advocacy Group My takeaway advice to #ACCFIT #ACCImaging from this survey --> for a trainee interested in cardiac imaging and to be competitive in the job market (academic vs. practice), one should still be an excellent clinical cardiologist as vast majority incorporate clinical care + imaging.

Collaboration 🤝

Dr. Purvi Parwani JACC Journals Dr Andrew D. Choi I wonder what’s American College of Radiology take on this subject. American College of Cardiology #ACCImaging and American College of Radiology should work together again for the future of CV Imagers. Improving access to cardiac CT & MRI to our pts is fundamental. The field is robust in terms of evidence & data. Not so in access

It's a necessary expense for the mission, just like staff & hybrid lab. American College of Cardiology American Society of Echocardiography

Sharing preliminary findings of my poll n=52. Cardiovascular Imaging Advocacy Group

$22,500 without considering inflation and most people don’t get this covered by their employer!!!! 😮

Please check my math. But this is not considering days off, hours studied, only online board reviews and dropping IM board. Estimated total adjusted to an inflation rate of 10.55%/5 yrs in a 35 yrs practice is $70,680.00 for a multimodality cardiologist imager.
