This abdominal imaging fellowship will take participants through staging and restaging rectal cancer on MRI. Following a series of lectures followed by in case readings and discussions, Dr. Stephanie Nougaret will share her vast knowledge on rectal cancer staging and restaging after neoadjuvant treatment.
Radiologists (to-be) who would like to become more confident on staging/restaging rectal cancer on MRI will find this abdominal imaging fellowship useful. This programme of 3 afternoons provides in-depth knowledge in the value of MRI during the management of rectal cancer.
Radiologists (to-be) will learn how to interpret staging and restaging MR images and deal with difficulties by evaluating numerous cases. After attending this course, the participants will not only be able to implement high-quality MR protocol in their own center but also will be able accurately interpret MR images both before and after neoadjuvant 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.
Participants will also benefit from using Dr. Nougaret's Rectal Cancer Staging Template which is also a take-home tool.
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.
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 radiology course is organised by TMC Academy, an EACCME Trusted Provider.
Testimonials:
"It was very useful joining the MRI rectum fellowship and learning from a very good mentor. Stephanie put us in the mind set of the surgeon answering their direct relevant clinical questions in staging Ca, rectum, assessment of the therapeutic response and looking for recurrence. It is very useful to know what are the surgeons looking for. Her approach to the cases was systematic and simple."
Dr. Magdy Soliman, Consultant Radiologist (UK) (Fellow, November 2023)
It was a privilege to have been systematically introduced to the topic by such an experienced expert and to deepen the material with many cases relevant to everyday practice."
Dr. Maria-Katharina Ganten, Radiologist (Fellow, March 2023)
Great fellowship, great cases, great teaching."
Dr. Anees Jwad, TMC Radiologist, based on the Isle of Man (Fellow, March 2023)
Level II - General radiologist
Level II/III - Subspecialisation training
Radiologists with little or with early advanced knowledge in rectal cancer MRI will benefit most from the fellowship.
The training platform runs entirely in the browser but the online PACS places a considerable load on the hardware and internet connection when viewing and loading cases.
