YEAR OF ESOR YEAR OF ESOR ESOR COURSES FOR EDiR 2016 Education in partnership
ESOR Courses for EDiR ESOR Courses for EDiR Course information In 2016, ESOR is re-introducing foundation courses to prepare/assist those entering examinations for the European Diploma in Radiology. Three cycles of courses at different times a year are organised at the ESR Learning Centre in Vienna, Austria. The format will include three one-day courses at each cycle, each one dealing with a specific organ/system-oriented theme. The teaching concept will include 20-minute lectures, immediately followed by 40-minute case-based reviews on six topics. The teaching/learning objectives for each of the topics will be strictly adhered to the European Training Curriculum. A self-assessment test including multiple-choice questions for each of the topics will round-off the exercise. 20 participants will be targeted per course. Registration will be possible for each single, one-day course, or for more, combined at the same cycle. Learning objectives to review the essential anatomy of key districts of head and neck to learn about the imaging strategy based on the specific clinical setting to discuss the imaging-based information relevant for decision making to build up a proper methodology for approaching the differential diagnosis of head and neck lesions
