ABOUT THE DVD CME PACK
Educational Symposia is constantly exploring ways to better serve our customers. Subscribers of our DVD CME teaching programs asked for a simpler way to share a DVD Teaching Program. We listened and are excited to introduce the DVD CME Pack.
Here's how it works. Purchase the original DVD teaching program then order as many DVD CME Packs as needed at a significantly reduced price. It really is that simple!
Educational Symposia's innovative DVD CME Packs allow each participating physician to own his/her set of DVDs. Having their own set provides the opportunity to view at their convenience and add to their personal reference library. DVD CME Packs are priced to make it a practical alternative to "waiting in line" to receive the next DVD.
Each DVD CME Pack contains:
-
An entire set of DVDs in a convenient case designed for durability and ease of access
-
One CME application and test
-
A one or two volume syllabus (depending on the series). Syllabus is included in the purchase price but is not enclosed in the DVD CME case.
See order form to order a DVD CME Pack for this series. To order a DVD CME Pack for a previously purchased DVD teaching program, visit us online at www.edusymp.com, call toll free (800) 338-5901.
Multiple CME Subscribers...
Educational Symposia DVD Teaching Programs are accredited for AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM for three years from the original release date. Once the initial order is placed, the number of CME applications and/or DVD CME Packs that can be ordered is limitless. Simply call (800) 338-5901 or access our website at www.edusymp.com and reference the name of the person or facility of the originating order. See order form for pricing.
ABOUT THIS DVD TEACHING PROGRAM
The evolution of 3T MRI is transforming the diagnostic evaluation of a wide variety of clinical disorders. This DVD teaching program presents a practical, yet clinically relevant review of this dynamic technology. Tips, techniques, protocols, and advanced clinical applications will be covered. This program is structured to teach subscribers how to maximize the capabilities of their scanner and, when appropriate, how to best utilize the power of 3T MRI in a competitive imaging environment.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This CME activity is primarily intended and designed to educate diagnostic imaging physicians. Also, it should be useful in educating orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and other referring physicians who order MRI procedures.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
At the completion of this DVD CME series, subscribers should be able to:
- Implement optimized protocols for 3T MRI into their clinical practices
- Describe the unique issues and expanded indications for clinical 3T
- Maximize the expanded clinical applications of 3T MRI for the evaluation of the vascular system
- Expand clinical applications for MRI in the evaluation of patients with CNS disorders
- Explain the clinical benefits of 3T in the evaluation of musculoskeletal, body, breast and cardiac disease
- More effectively utilize MR to assess patients with musculoskeletal pathology
No special educational preparation is required for this CME activity.

STUDIO ENHANCEMENT
Educational Symposia DVD teaching sessions feature a distinctive production process termed Studio Enhancement. The diagnostic images utilized by the faculty for each lecture are reproduced and studio-processed to optimize the display of anatomy and pathology. Each of the teaching slides are integrated into the program. This editing process ensures the DVD user the best image quality possible when viewing the diagnostic material. An electronic pointer is included to further reinforce the learning process. This DVD teaching program has been produced using broadcast quality digital equipment and editing techniques. All programs are reproduced from digital masters for maximum quality.
