This Lower Extremity musculoskeletal (MSK) MRI course, taught by highly knowledgeable radiologist Phillip Tirman MD, will include an overview of MRI of the hip and pelvis, thigh, knee, leg, ankle, and foot with a daily presentation, individual case readings, and group-based case read-outs.
With years of experience in the field of MSK radiology, Dr. Tirman comes prepared with his own case mix to share with you, containing a large variety of musculoskeletal cases relevant to the topic, which participants can also review on their own after the fellowship.
Each day of the fellowship starts with a lecture followed by the challenge of practising on real anonymised illustrative cases from the personal file of Dr. Tirman, and then finishes with a group discussion of the cases. Radiologists who want to become more confident with the interpretation of imaging of MSK MRI will find this fellowship beneficial.
Unilabs Academy medical imaging fellowships are held in a virtual classroom on Zoom. Participants are encouraged to engage in discussions using their camera and microphone to recreate the face-to-face experience. In this small group environment among your peers, you are free to ask questions, make mistakes, and learn together with the support of the radiologist mentor. Online sessions are recorded so that participants can review on their own time following the training.
