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.
