    The ‘Imaging in Maternal-Fetal Medicine Training Course’ responds to the obstetricians’ and imaging specialists’ need for advanced training in diagnostic imaging. The training consists of a theoretical-practical part and a face-to-face week in Barcelona.

    The theoretical-practical part includes an online training through specific modules to acquire basic and advanced knowledge, as well as different practical tasks such as discussing clinical cases and submitting images to validate the acquisition of the needed skills. This part is supported by an interactive platform consisting of discussion forums and Masterclasses taught by experts in the field.

    The second part of this Course consists of a face-to-face week in Barcelona. During this week, there will be Meet-the-Professor sessions, workshops and clinical cases discussions. (See more details in the academic guide).

    Target audience

    Specialists in Obstetrics and Gynecology or in Imaging, who would like to receive high-level training in diagnostic imaging in Maternal-Fetal Medicine to capacitate them for their daily practice but have a limited time for such training.

    General objective

    High-level theoretical-practical training in imaging applied to maternal-fetal medicine.

     

Course details

Teaching Structure

 

The teaching program of the Imaging in Maternal-Fetal Medicine Training Course includes 5 theoretical modules that fully cover practical diagnostic imaging in fetal medicine and offers advanced training through theoretical classes and an interactive platform.

Each module contains videos with theoretical content that can be viewed online. These modules have a determined duration and will be carried out consecutively. Upon completion of a module, the student will have access to an evaluation test by means of multiple-choice questions that can include images and videos, with specific deadlines of completion.

Masterclass

The Masterclasses are interactive sessions with the professors that will be scheduled in the form of live online webinars, in which the students will be able to ask their questions to the experts, with the objective of solving any doubts that may have remained.

These sessions will be held before the end of the online exam period of each module and they will be coordinated by a moderator to ensure that they run smoothly.

Practicum

All modules include a practical part that consists of obtaining and submitting several ultrasound images, which must meet the criteria explained in the theoretical classes.

The images will be assessed and scored by the tutors of the course; the students will receive a personalized feedback that will allow them to detect possible pitfalls in order to improve their clinical skills.

The objective of this part is to provide decision-making and problem-solving tools in ultrasound scanning that are essential in the doctor’s daily clinical practice.

Clinic cases resolution

A forum will be created for each module using the Moodle platform. The students will be given access once the module is open. It will constitute the place to share questions and doubts regarding the studied topics. The directors of the module will propose clinical cases to generate a debate between the students.

Face-to-face Week

From October 2 to October 6, 2023

The course includes a one-week period in Barcelona, that consists of:

  •  Meet-the-Professor sessions, in which the students will be able to discuss in person the most relevant aspects of each module with expert professors in their specific area of knowledge.
  •  Practical workshops on invasive procedures, with the use of simulators and guidance from experts in these procedures.
  •  Clinical cases sessions, in groups of 10-12 participants. Examples of real clinical cases will be discussed to put the knowledge acquired in the different modules into practice. Participants will be asked to present their own clinical cases and they will be discussed within the group with the supervision of an expert.

Research project

The students must elaborate a final research project that will be evaluated by the expert committee. There are two modalities to choose from on the type of the final project:

  •  Systematic literature review on a current subject related to the content of the course.
  •  Original research in the student’s own setting.

The topic of the final project must be proposed by each student. The proposals must be sent to the coordinator team before February 15, 2023 in order to be assessed by the scientific committee, which will evaluate their suitability. The scientific committee will establish the definitive topic for each student’s project and assign a tutor to guide the student during the project’s development. It is necessary to pass the final work assessment (the passing score is 70) to obtain the university degree.

Course certificate

 

To obtain the course certificate, it is essential to pass all the theoretical and the practical parts of each module.

  • • A diploma that certifies the completion of “Imaging in Maternal-Fetal Medicine Training Course” will be issued by Maternal Fetal Medicine Barcelona with a qualification certificate.
  • • The course is accredited by the University of Barcelona. Participants, will also be awarded a “University expert in imaging in Maternal-Fetal Medicine” specific degree* with 20 ECTS issued by the Institute of Continuous Education (IL3), University of Barcelona*

*What is a university own degree?

According to the regulations of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) most European universities offer specific degrees. In Spain, pursuant to article 2(g) of the Organic Law on Universities [Ley Orgánica 6/2001, de 21 de diciembre, de Universidades], the government allows Spanish universities to independently issue university-specific diplomas and qualifications. This enables the University to add to the official training it offers these so-called university-specific qualifications.

University-specific qualifications are specialised courses with various names (master’s degree, postgraduate, expert, etc.). They are designed to flexibly meet the needs that arise in the labour market and society, so they are aimed at achieving objectives such as:

• Providing specialised training with an immediate impact in the professional world.
• Updating professional knowledge in order to encourage skills-building for professional practice.
• Making a connection between academic work and social reality (this objective is supported by the frequent organisation of qualifications that are taught through an agreement with public institutions and private companies).

Therefore, the Expert in Imaging in Maternal Fetal Medicine is an official University-specific degree issued by the University of Barcelona through its institute for continuous education (IL3). This degree certifies that the participant has received specialized training in maternal and fetal medicine.

What is the difference between university-specific qualifications and official qualifications from universities?
• The main difference between the two is that official qualifications require a series of procedures and assessments by different public bodies such as the National Agency for the Assessment of Quality and Accreditation (ANECA), which are necessary in order to do a PhD, while University-specific qualifications do not need to be validated by institutions such as ANECA.
What validity does a university-specific qualification have outside of Spain?
• A university-specific course has the same validity inside or outside of Spain, as it is a curricular qualification for unregulated studies approved by university boards under the Organic Law on Universities, which accredits the student’s continuing education.
• The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) qualifies a program as a master’s degree when the required workload to achieve the learning objectives is >60 ECTS.
• The ECTS credits are used by and accepted by effectively all European universities and also by many other institutions around the world.
What is is not a university-specific expert degree
• This course does not enable professional exercise irrespective of the local regulations of each country. In some specific countries, this type of activity could be used later to accredit or obtain an additional national qualification in the field of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, but this will always depend on local regulations and it is not an automatic feature of this degree whatsoever.
