With grateful acknowledgement of our Society Corporate Supporters:-
A stimulating and engaging online learning experience – reviewing cases with the experts!
The ICIS Interactive series is designed as an advanced cancer imaging course for Radiologists, who would like to gain deeper understanding into the imaging of specific cancers through case-based learning. The courses in this series have been rated excellent by many participants.
This online masterclass will be delivered across two consecutive half-days (the afternoons of 12 & 13 November 2020), each consisting of a four-hour session during which two topics will be covered. Presentation of each topic will commence with a lecture followed by mentored review of 8-10 carefully selected cases to facilitate hands-on case-based learning.
A comprehensive workbook to reinforce learning is provided to guide participants through the cases, with each case chosen to illustrate specific learning points. This will be available as a downloadable PDF document (circa.180 pages), or for an additional £35 charge we will courier a printed & bound copy of the workbook for you to work through during the course.
By the end of the course, all participants will have benefitted from mentored case-based learning of 35 - 40 cases, each chosen with specific learning points.
All delegates will be emailed a CPD certificate on completion of the course.
There are only 20 places available for this online course so book early to avoid disappointment!
