The Heart Matters: Advances in Cardiac PET-MPI
The importance of radiotracer characteristics for diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). FlyrcadoTM (F-18 flurpiridaz)
The significant clinical and economic burden of CAD highlights the need for accurate and timely diagnosis. Current imaging methods present challenges and limitations that can potentially lead to inconclusive or false results, thereby impacting diagnosis and downstream healthcare resource utilization.
This webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of current CAD diagnostic imaging, describe the burden of disease, and illustrate limitations and unmet needs posed by existing Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI) modalities in the United States.
The webinar will then introduce FlyrcadoTM (F-18 flurpiridaz), a recent FDA approved PET-MPI radiotracer indicated to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD) and discuss how FlyrcadoTM may play a role in optimizing the diagnosis of CAD in some difficult-to-image patient subgroups.

Thirty Years of Targeted Immuno-Modulators Evolution: More of the Same or Formulary Necessity?
A Science & Innovation Webinar, presented by Abbvie.
Treatment targets are dynamic, changing with our growing understanding of a disease and the emergence of potent therapies that enhance care standards. Newer mechanisms of action have extended rigorous goal attainment including minimal disease activity (MDA) in psoriatic arthritis, clear or almost clear skin in psoriasis, and endoscopic remission in Crohn’s Disease. The benefits of achieving high treatment targets are now strong enough for medical guidelines to advocate for earlier use of targeted immunomodulators for certain conditions. In budget constrained environments, payers need to understand how innovations are driving demand for newer mechanisms of action in the TIMs marketplace.
