Toshiba America Medical Systems is offering two new classes at its Education Center in Irvine, CA, in CT and MR angiography (MRA).
The classes, titled "Advanced CT Imaging for Technologists" and "Advanced Non-Contrast MRA," are designed to educate technologists on the latest applications available through Toshiba technology, according to the Tustin, CA-based firm.
The advanced CT imaging class is for three days and is based on the company's Aquilion 16, 32, and 64 systems. The advanced noncontrast MRA class is a two-day course, Toshiba said.

![Axial images from unenhanced calcium score cardiac CT (left) and curved planar reformation images from CT angiography (right) show that higher long-term exposure to air pollution is associated with greater coronary artery calcium and more obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Top row: Images in a 68-year-old male patient with higher 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (7.9 μg/m3 for particulate matter measuring ≤2.5 μm in diameter [PM2.5] and 17.4 parts per billion [ppb] for NO2) with extensive CAD (coronary artery calcium score [CACS] >1,000 and obstructive CAD [≥70% diameter stenosis]). Bottom row: Images in a 57-year-old female patient with lower 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (6.3 μg/m3 for PM2.5 and 4.6 ppb for NO2) with no CAD (CACS = 0 and no obstructive stenosis).](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/06/hanneman.r6SMLzkezo.png?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
