ESOR FOUNDATION COURSES 2025
This course on paediatric emergency radiology includes six topics consisting of 40 minutes of theory and case presentations followed by a live Q&A section after each session for interaction with the faculty members.
Develop diagnostic skills: Recognize and differentiate clinical presentations and imaging findings in acute stroke, brain injury (accidental and non-accidental), and major pediatric trauma.
Identify specific diagnostic features and pitfalls: Learn key diagnostic patterns, such as malrotation, volvulus, pneumonia, bronchiolitis, and abdominal tumors in children, while recognizing potential imaging pitfalls that may affect accuracy.
Apply guidelines and follow-up protocols: Understand the role of imaging in line with European guidance for pediatric trauma, and apply appropriate protocols for follow-up and monitoring of disease recurrence or post-treatment effects.
Understand imaging protocols and modalities: Gain knowledge of protocols, including advantages and limitations of various imaging methods, and recognize appropriate imaging approaches for different clinical contexts.
