Exploring the Role of Radiologists in Diagnosis and Monitoring of VOD/SOS: An Illustrative Case Discussion

Sherwin S. Chan, MD, PhD

This online activity, "Exploring the Critical Role of Radiologists in Diagnosis and Monitoring of VOD/SOS: An Illustrative Case Discussion," is designed to provide a concise and focused overview of the diagnosis and monitoring of veno-occlusive disease (VOD)/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS). This activity provides insights on important topics such as updates on recent practice-changing guidelines and evidence in diagnosing and monitoring VOD/SOS through multidisciplinary care with a radiologist.

Upon successful completion of this activity, you should be better prepared to:

• Explain advances in the scientific understanding of VOD/SOS pathophysiology, clinical risk criteria, and the need for early imaging, monitoring, and intervention once identified in posttransplant settings.
• Determine the role of imaging techniques to optimize the diagnosis and monitoring of VOD/SOS among patients who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
• Apply the most recent diagnostic and severity grading classifications to facilitate VOD/SOS diagnosis following HSCT.
• Identify strategies to improve multidisciplinary communication and coordination of care between radiologists and medical oncologists in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with VOD/SOS cases.
