Overview

Learn the Latest Emergency Radiology Methods and Techniques
UW Emergency Radiology Review Course offers exhaustive key topic coverage in emergency radiology. Guided by experts from the University of Washington’s School of Medicine, the course targets epidemiology & mechanisms of trauma, an integrated imaging approach to injuries of the head, spine, neck, torso, pelvis, as well as appendicular skeleton, and clinicians’ expectations of imaging.

The intention of this CME program is to enable you to:

• Promptly decide the proper imaging studies that need to be performed during emergency situations
• Identify rare clinical conditions that present in the emergency situation setting
• Revise imaging procedures to help in optimizing diagnostic accuracy while at the same time minimizing radiation
• Carry out correct interpretation of emergency imaging studies as well as recognizing indicated additional imaging
