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 Credits^TM 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.

The 2009 American Society of Spine Radiology DVD Teaching Program is the most comprehensive spinal CME activity available. This DVD CME series includes presentations on advanced imaging techniques, infection, tumors, pharmacology, case presentations and socio-economic issues. Nationally and internationally recognized experts share their experience in imaging of the spine from both the diagnostic and interventional perspective.

This DVD CME activity is primarily intended and designed to educate radiologists, neuroradiologists, musculoskeletal radiologists, interventional radiologists, spine surgeons, pain management and rehabilitation physicians, anesthesiologists, as well as fellows and residents-in-training in these specialties. Course material is also aimed at allied health professionals, including physician assistants and nurse practitioners, who specialize, or have particular interest, in conditions affecting the spine.

At the completion of this DVD CME series, subscribers should be able to:

• Improve their understanding of recent advances in MR and CT of spine imaging techniques.
• Improve their ability to apply recent advances in imaging to their daily practice.
• Become familiar with spinal intervention techniques, including percutaneous disc interventions, percutaneous vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, and other treatments that are directed at the epidural space and nerve root.
• Review and understand the variety of diverse pathology that affects the spine, including congenital, degenerative, infectious/inflammatory, neoplastic, traumatic, and vascular conditions.

No special educational preparation is required for this CME activity.
