MRI PRO - Advanced Reading of Prostate MRI

Overview

The MRI PRO is a short course designed to raise the minimum standard and reduce variation in the reporting accuracy of prostate MRI globally. It is now accredited for a Monash University Short Course Certificate.

Fees

• $190 USD monthly
• $1,210 USD upfront payment for 12 months (Save $1,070)

Who Should Attend

MRI PRO is for radiologists, urologists, and trainees who already have a basic understanding of reading prostate MRI as per the currently recognised standard of PI-RADS v.2.1.

What You Will Learn

Students will analyse 300 full prostate MRI cases, performed to PIRADS (Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System) v2.1 standard, online. For each case, students will analyse the MRI and will be required to give their answers in four domains, which are all clinically focused.

Program Structure

• Assessment Task 1 (AT1): What the PIRADS score is, as the indicator of likelihood that significant prostate cancer is present.
• Assessment Task 2 (AT2): If the MRI is deemed positive for a suspicious lesion (PIRADS 3 – 5), how many lesions are present.
• Assessment Task 3 (AT3): If the MRI is positive, what staging features there are with regard to extraprostatic extension, seminal vesicle involvement, lymph node metastasis and bony metastasis.
• Assessment Task 4 (AT4): If lesions are present, where in the prostate a biopsy would most likely hit that lesion.

Testimonials

• "I've really enjoyed using MRI PRO. It's very easy to use, and I find it so convenient to log on and do a couple of cases whenever I have a few moments of free time. I also really like the immediate and sleek feedback, it gives it a gaming feel that encourages me to continue to use it." Dr Nancy Wang, MD MPH, Urology Resident, Stanford Hospital, USA
• "It's been a really great tool with a great interface that is easy to manoeuvre through. I especially liked the radical prostatectomy cuts and explanations given with the answers." Dr Renu Eapen, Urologist, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre
