Description

This MSK MRI course will cover the entire ankle joint and its surroundings, including joint surfaces, bones, ligaments, and tendons. It will in-depth explain how to understand and how to report MRI studies of the ankle, emphasizing common and uncommon complaints and findings. Injuries, degeneration, stress changes, and normal anatomic variants will be covered – enabling the attendees to report ankle studies with confidence. This is a comprehensive MRI course, with lectures and case sessions, in a smaller group with close interactions with an experienced lecturer and MSK radiologist.

TMC Academy online fellowships are held in a virtual classroom environment on Zoom. Participants are encouraged to engage in discussions making use of their camera and microphone in order to recreate the face-to-face experience. Online sessions are recorded so you can review on your own time following the training.

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.

This radiology fellowship is organised by TMC Academy, an EACCME Trusted Provider.

"This was my fourth MSK fellowship with TMC academy and unsurprisingly it was as good as the other three. I highly recommend this course because of the dedication of the tutor, his detailed approach and excellent selection of cases. Thank you, Dr Pedersen! Thank you TMC Academy!”

"I will recommend this fellowship, which I found very useful in my everyday practice as an MSK-radiologist. The lectures was to-the-point, very nicely presented, and there were a lot of cases to illustrate all the pathology. I would like to attend more of these fellowships.”
