Description

This online reporting course is aimed mainly, but not exclusively at radiologists and urologists wishing to be trained on how to accurately protocol and interpret prostate MRI for cancer diagnosis. The programme is focused on the practical aspects of MRI staging of prostate cancer and how to follow and optimise imaging strategies to improve patient surveillance.

This interactive course will give you direct feedback on all your reported cases including case-statistics and annotated image solutions.

Lifetime access to:

- 20 selected real-life prostate MRI cases for you to report on our Image Reporting Simulator

The reading of the cases is self-managed with no mentoring support.
