Description

This online oesophageal cancer fellowship includes an overview of oesophageal cancer staging. The 3 (half) day training includes a review of various imaging modalities used including PET – CT with supportive case review. Further review of post treatment appearances as well as complications of both oesophageal cancer and treatment.

Each module starts with a lecture. After the lecture you will be challenged with practicing on real anonymised key cases. After the individual case readings there will be an additional lecture followed by a ‘Questions and Answers’ session.

TMC Academy fellowships are held in a virtual classroom environment on Zoom. Participants are encouraged to engage in discussions making use of their camera and microphone in order to recreate the face-to-face experience.

Online sessions are recorded so that participants can review on their own time following the training.

In this small group environment among your peers, you are free to ask questions, make mistakes, and learn together with the support of the radiologist mentor.

This fellowship is a CME-accredited activity organised by TMC Academy, an EACCME Trusted Provider.
