Join us for the upcoming Prostate MR Virtual Course. You will have opportunity to review and analyze the most challenging prostate cases and learn from world-class radiologists.

In this virtual course, radiologists will be able to practice detection of clinically significant prostate cancer on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) of the prostate and apply the PI-RADS V2.1 scoring system for standardized analysis of mpMRI and communication of imaging findings. In this course, learners will utilize both the framework of PI-RADS® and the case library of 20 pathology proven prostate mpMRI cases that illustrate a broad spectrum of prostatic pathologies ranging from benign to malignant. Two lectures will focus on the principles and application of PI-RADS V2.1 scoring system and review of the caveats on mpMRI of the prostate.

During the two-hour pre-recorded session of the course, faculty will review selected cases to discuss the imaging findings and challenges during the interpretation of mpMRI. At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

1.  Examine the correlation between the PI-RADS v2.1 scoring system and Gleason's grading score.
2.  Identify and localize abnormalities located in the peripheral and central zones. 
3.  Evaluate the four imaging parameters in a mpMRI to determine the PI-RADS v2.1 category.

NOTE:  Virtual courses are NOT compatible with tablets (specifically iPads).
