Description
The main purpose of this diagnostic imaging fellowship is to provide you with the tools to deal with urgent and complex paediatric cases while working as a general radiologist or 1st-2nd year paediatric radiologists. You will dive through a series of concise lectures followed by case demos and discussions that will give you an overview of cases you should not miss.
We will learn about paediatric tumours and tumour-like lesions, life-threatening paediatric emergencies, liver, and kidney transplant complications, and from radiological mistakes that could cause a negative medical outcome to children.
Each module starts with a lecture. After the lecture you will be challenged with practicing on real anonymised key cases. After and during the individual case readings there will be plenty of time for group discussion and Q&A with the mentor.
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 radiology fellowship is organised by TMC Academy, an EACCME Trusted Provider.
