Dear Colleagues:

Within the activities planned for 2010 by the Department of Electronic Education of the Interamerican College of Radiology, we are glad to introduce you the Virtual Course on Trauma Diagnostic Imaging, which will be held in www.radiologiavirtual.org in June.

This course is particularly interesting since traumas are a big part of emergency medicine, where radiology expertise plays a fundamental part in clinical decision-making.

This, and the cross curricular issues of its content, makes this course appealing beyond the radiology field; that is why we hope it is also interesting for colleagues of other medical specialties such as traumatologists, surgeons, therapists and other professionals involved in medical emergencies.

The syllabus includes general aspects of radiology handling concerning trauma, moving on to anatomic regions, as well as specific issues related to trauma in pediatrics.

A detailed description of the Preliminar Syllabus of the course is shown below.

Best regards,

Jorge Picorel, Francisco Sendra and Oswaldo Ramos
