🚀 Outstanding lecture by @JBourqueMD at WFNMB 2026 in Cartagena!

MBF quantification is a game changer in cardiac PET imaging — helping us better identify balanced ischemia, understand microvascular dysfunction, and improve patient prognosis. 🌍❤️‍🩹 #WFNMB2026 @MyASNC

Accurately put answers and statements for commonly posed questions stemming from partial information on cardiac testing. Use the right test in the appropriate context,

Where do we begin with Dr. Devi Shetty? A few thoughts and tips to avoid panicking 👇🏼

1. Sudden cardiac arrest is just that - "sudden", either there was a coronary plaque vulnerable to rupture (we call it a thin cap fibrous atheroma) or a genetic cardiomyopathy/arrhythmia (1/n)

Bad Bunny’s “Titi Me Pregunto” can help you keep the beat and save a life with Hands-Only CPR. If you see a teen or adult suddenly collapse:
👉 Call 911
👉 Push hard and fast in the center of the chest at a rate of 100-120 beats per minute

We also require multiple other vaccines prior to transplant as well. The only difference is that this one has been politicized.

This is my son Levi and he has been battling cancer for over 2 years. We are in the hospital 10 days/month + ED visits due to him being neutropenic post chemo. Think of him when you’re choosing your “freedom” over the vax. Because his life is worth more than your “freedom”. (1/3)

[Ripa Chakravorty, MD FACC @ripachak]

Agreed.. whole heartedly!

@DrBarbaraTaylor We are in Schertz. We have decided to homeschool. Sad that people don’t care about these tiny humans who I can’t protect with a vaccine. That’s our only hope and I hope it comes to them soon. Wish UT could be a vaccine site for the pediatric age group.
