Extremely grateful to share that I matched at @MethodistHosp for Internal Medicine training.

Truly thankful to my incredible mentor @almallahmo for his guidance and unwavering support, and to the entire Houston Methodist family for their trust and support. This wouldn’t have been possible without Dr @WilliamZoghbi @HeartToProve @ mahmoudalrifai

Excited to continue learning and growing with the Methodist community!

Starting Day 2 of Nuclear Cardiology Now: Middle East with an exciting session by Dr. @PanithayaC on ¹⁸F Flurpiridaz PET MPI 🫀✨

Key highlights:
🔹 Superior image quality: high spatial resolution, high count statistics & excellent contrast resolution
🔹 Residual activity subtraction avoids flow overestimation & restores defect severity
🔹 Adoption barriers: cost, infrastructure, training needs & reimbursement limitations
🔹 Pathways forward: regional distribution, standardized protocols, expanded training & equity-focused implementation

Exciting momentum for the future of ¹⁸F PET MPI!

Great talk by Dr. Aljizeeri on the incorporation of MBF into routine practice and its impact on patient outcomes 🫀

Key conclusions:
🔹 MBF & MFR are robust tools for evaluating chest pain and help explain symptoms in patients with or without obstructive CAD
🔹 MFR provides prognostic value across the full spectrum of cardiovascular disease
🔹 Should be integrated into clinical decision-making when evaluating patients with chest pain
