The purpose of the Fellowship is to have a tailor-made small group hands-on education and feedback study format covering major and important aspects of abdominal CT and MRI, based on plenary lectures and hands on case-based interactive training. The programme is flexible and adaptable to the participants and their need and requests.
The principle part of the education will be case-based study with direct feedback. The participants will be asked about their expectations and needs. Coverage of whole abdomen will be provided, however the course program will be adjusted as much as possible based on what the participants’ wishes.
Each subject will first be taught in lecture format with interaction of the participants. The pace will be adjusted based on the needs of the group. After each presentation representative cases with be provided and participants will review the images, first by themselves and then together with the rest of the group as well as the mentor. Participants are encouraged to bring their own cases for discussion. The main aim is not only to have textbooks cases but how daily scenarios are tackled.
