Radiology Courses - The Advanced Chest X-ray Study Day

about the courses

The course structure: analysing and reporting on six sets of CXR's - between 15 and 20 cases per set. Twenty-five minutes allowed for each set followed by highly interactive practical answer / discussion sessions on key aspects of CXR interpretation. There are no "put me to sleep" powerpoint lectures. A copy of our book The Chest X-ray: A survival Guide is incuded in the course fee.

Who should attend?

Specialist Registrars: suitable for all doctors at any stage. Particularly aimed at FRCR exam candidates. The viva element of Part 2b is largely Plain Film assessment with a heavy weighting on the CXR. This course will provide valuable preparation experience.
Consultants: the practical nature of this course will be helpful to Consultants who wish to consolidate / confirm their competency in day-to-day Chest X-ray interpretation.
Other Doctors: Respiratory Physicians, aspiring Radiologists and other Doctors involved in CXR interpretation will find the practical nature of this course interesting, fun and useful.

6 Category One CPD CREDITS have been awarded by The Royal College of Radiologists. These apply to all CPD participants of all the Medical Royal Colleges.

(1) Cancellations received more than 21 days prior to a course will receive a 75% refund of the fee paid. Cancellations received less than 21 days prior to a course will receive a 25% refund of the fee paid. Non attendance will not entitle the registrant to a refund.

(2) Transfer to a later or future course. If a registrant makes a cancellation and requests a simple transfer to a future course at the fee already paid... this will not normally be arranged. In general, a cancellation cannot be transferred (at the fee paid) to a future course because places cannot be filled at short notice. However, the timing of the cancellation is important. Our transfer policy is as follows: a) a cancellation - with a request for a transfer to a future course - which is received more than 28 days prior to the course will be transferred; b) any registrant making a cancellation – for whatever reason – less than 28 days prior to a course will not be transferred to a future course (at the fee already paid) and, instead, the registrant will receive the % refund as per (1) above.

(3) Returned cheques will incur an administration charge of Ł15.
