If you purchase advance air travel and hotel accomodations, you will be responsible for any added travel-related costs in case of cancellation or postponemen to the next period.
Disclaimer #2 for afternoon OBSERVATIONAL VISITING FELLOWSHIPS: As we do not fully control patient flow and when patients schedule their Cardiac CT examinations, we can not guarantee how many patients will have a test during your short Visiting fellowship. We are still in the process of optimizing patient flow. For one-day visitors we will review older CT examinations if no new examinations are scheduled. Most of our Cardiac CT scanning takes place between 2 PM and 5 PM, but there is an extensive patient preparation process starting around 11 AM. Post-processing and analysis of Cardiac CT studies is done after 5 PM and can continue the next morning (next morning session not included in 1-day visits). No syllabus provided. These visits start at 1 PM. There are no activities planned in the morning. There is always the options of also booking a Read-with-Expert session in the morning, but only on selected days.

Disclaimer #3 for READ-with-EXPERT Sessions: these are 3 hour READING SESSIONS: We plan 3 hour reading sessions from 9 AM to noon time, and can never predict if we will have network or computer crashes. The start of reading sessions may change depending upon urgent patient care issues. Please call ahead to reserve a spot. If more than 3 people wish to attend, the price increases by $1,000 per person. No syllabus provided.
