Presentation

 

The Training Course on Imaging in Maternal-Fetal Medicine responds to the need of obstetricians or radiologists for advanced training in diagnostic imaging.

The training consists of a theoretical-practical part and a practical part. The theoretical-practical part includes the completion of online training through basic and advanced knowledge acquisition modules, as well as various practical tasks in the form of clinical cases and sending images to validate the accreditation of these skills.

This part is supported by an interactive platform consisting of discussion forums and Masterclasses given by experts in the field.

The course includes a 1 week face-to-face period in Barcelona. During this period there will be "meet the professor" classes, workshops and clinical cases.

Who is the target audience?

Professionals specialized in Gynecology and Obstetrics or in Imaging who wish to be trained in high-level diagnostic imaging in Maternal-Fetal Medicine to enable them for their daily practice and who have limited time available.

Overall objective

High level theoretical and practical training in imaging applied to maternal-fetal medicine in an international reference center.

 

Course details

Course structure, schedule and content

 

Teaching structure

The teaching program of the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Imaging Training Course includes 5 theoretical modules that cover almost the entirety of diagnostic imaging in current fetal pathology and offer advanced training through theoretical classes and the interactive platform.

Each module allows the online viewing of videos with the theoretical contents of the modules. These modules will have a determined duration and will be carried out sequentially.

The theoretical evaluation will be done online, once the Masterclass session has been completed and all the doubts that the students may have have have been resolved. The exam will be a multiple-choice test with questions that may include images and videos, with specific dates.

Masterclass

Masterclasses will be scheduled with the tutor of each module in Zoom format where students will be able to ask live online questions to the experts. They will be coordinated by a moderator who will facilitate their development. The session will be held before the end of the online exam period to resolve any doubts that students may have.

Practicum

All modules include a practical part that consists of obtaining and sending a certain number of images* that must follow the criteria established in the theoretical classes.

These will be evaluated and scored by the Academic Committee of the course so that students will receive personalized feedback that will allow them to detect possible errors in order to improve technically and improve their healthcare practice.

This part requires dedication on the part of the student and is aimed at improving the performance of ultrasound scans in their daily healthcare activity. In some modules it is also required the submission of documented clinical cases, obtained by the student himself at his workplace, with their associated images.

Online Clinical Case Resolution

A forum will be created using the Moodle platform for each module. This will be supervised by the scientific coordinator of the course who will ensure its correct functioning.

It will be made available to the students at the beginning of the module and will represent a space to share concerns and doubts in relation to the topics to be covered. Likewise, the module directors will present some clinical cases to the students to generate debate.

On-site part

The on-site period consists of one week in Barcelona. From February 5 to 9, 2024 includes:

  •  Meet the professor" sessions, in which students can personally discuss the most relevant aspects of each module with professors who are experts in that area of knowledge.
  •  Practical workshops on invasive techniques. They are carried out with simulators guided by experts in invasive techniques.
  •  Clinical case sessions in groups of 10-12 people where some example clinical cases will be solved and the knowledge acquired during the various modules will be put into practice. Participants will be asked to present their own clinical cases and they will be discussed in groups, supervised by an expert.

Final review paper - research

Students will be required to complete a final research paper that will be evaluated by the committee of experts. The topic of the work will be proposed by each student. There are 2 modalities to choose on the topic of the final work:

  •  Systematic literature review of a current topic covered during the course.
  •  Original research in your own environment.
