Case In Point Submission Procedures

The "NASCI Case in Point" section features didactic cardiac CT and MRI cases that highlight important teaching points for each case presented. A new case will be presented on a bimonthly schedule.

We encourage all to submit cases for presentation on the website. The format (to be submitted as a Microsoft® Powerpoint [PPT] file) is as follows:

1. Clinical History (2-4 lines)
2. Images/Movies
3. Description of Imaging findings/Equipment/Scanning Techniques (2-4 lines)
4. Learning Points/Unique Points from the case presented (3-4 points)
5. 2-4 references

Submitted cases will be peer-reviewed by the Case in Point editors and committee, and can therefore be listed as peer-reviewed web publications on the CVs of the submitters.

The editors of the Case-in Point section are Amgad N. Makaryus, MD (New York University School of Medicine, North Shore University Hospital; Manhasset, New York, USA) and Tara Catanzano, MD (Yale University School of Medicine; New Haven, Connecticut, USA).
