Is it possible to work smarter and better as a radiologist? And what does smarter and better mean? Is faster always better, and what happens when you change your workstyle? Can you improve in any way? Learn from two experienced radiologists how they take charge of their reporting habits
Being a radiologist is not as fancy as being a pilot or a top level athlete. We mostly sit on a chair, stare at a screen and talk with a low voice to our RIS and PACS. In this workshop, Volker and Roar will show you how you can apply pilot and athlete principles to improve your radiology skills, your efficiency and your workday.
Volker and Roar will apply principles and experience from an MSK-perspective, how they improve their long workdays reporting large numbers of musculoskeletal cases, but the principles are also applicable to other fields of radiology.
Are you working in an optimal way or in an optimal environment, as efficiently as you want? Maybe you are challenged by yourself to improve accuracy and speed, so you can spend more time doing the things you really want to do? Volker and Roar want you to evaluate your own workday, taking charge of your performance.
TMC Academy workshops 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.
