Course Information

In 2017, ESOR is continuing to organise foundation courses to prepare/assist those entering examinations for the European Diploma in Radiology (EDiR). These courses may also be attended by board-certified radiologists, wishing to update their knowledge in a specific area. A series of courses is organised at the ESR Learning Centre in Vienna/Austria, in November 2017. The format will include nine courses, 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 with multiple choice questions for each lecture will round-off the exercise.

The ESOR Courses for EDiR are intended to help prospective candidates to prepare for the European Diploma in Radiology examination. Attendance does not guarantee acceptance to take the examination or success in the examination.

Learning Objectives:

to understand the role of modern imaging techniques – mammography, ultrasound and MRI in diagnosis of breast diseases, including nipple discharge and other symptoms
to be acquainted with specific features of advanced ultrasound and MRI in diagnosis of breast cancer, choosing treatment, and follow-up after treatment
to appreciate the need of structured reporting to understand how to communicate breast imaging findings to patients
to understand the role of imaging guidance in breast biopsies and minimally invasive therapy of breast cancer
