CTA Mentor is a software program designed to coach you through the interpretation of over 9,000 endpoints found in a Cardiac CTA. Using this software is equivalent to having an expert personally tutor you through each case. All cases include expert reviews and many have cath correlations. You have the ability to email the lecturer and debate the case with other students via message board.

The CTA Mentor Program coaches you through your review of 100 cases of varying pathology

Here is how the CTA Mentor Program works:

  1. We send you a small external hard drive (view). On this hard drive (HD), we provide you with the DICOM files for up to 100 cases, depending on how many you need to complete your Level 2 program. You load these cases onto your 3D workstation (Vital Images or TeraRecon). Workstations are available for lease if needed.

  2. The CTA Mentor Program is also on that same HD. You can install the program on your workstation or on a nearby PC or a laptop. No internet connection is required. All that is required is a Windows XP or greater machine that has the ability to play sound. Headsets are recommended for best sound quality.

  3. The software stores all of your answers on the hard drive, which you send back to us for scoring. We will arrange a phone call tutoring session with you to discuss any areas that need attention. Upon completion, we will issue your Level 2 certificate and CMEs, if appropriate.
