About us

For over 15 years we have been jointly committed to scientifically sound, clinically focused and didactically polished teaching in radiology.

During this two-day course we provide you a comprehensive state of the art hands-on training in prostate MRI.

Online workshops in small groups are ideally suited for this purpose. Our participants agree with us: 96% evaluate our current online course as “very good” (4%: good) and 100% would recommend it to their colleagues.

Booking both the basic and advanced courses of our “MRI of the Prostate” series is highly recommended. In this case you receive a bundle discount of 20%. Of course, you can also attend each course separately.

We look forward to welcoming soon at the school of radiology!

Yours,
Pascal Baltzer and Matthias Dietzel

What technical equipment do you recommend?

Our courses are held online via Zoom.
All you need is an internet-compatible device of your choice and a stable internet connection.
The following tips can maximize your learning experience:

  • Install Zoom on your computer.
  • Log in with your personal Zoom account.
  • Familiarize yourself with basic functionalities, e.g., turning video and audio on/off and writing chat messages.
  • Please do not use Zoom via your browser.
  • Tip: Install the Zoom app on a second device (smartphone, tablet, etc.). This will make answering interactive polls more convenient. It will also serve as a backup.
  • Choose a high-quality monitor. If possible, use your diagnostic workstation.
  • A fast and stable internet connection (ideally LAN, not W-LAN), appropriate lighting, a quality microphone, and a quality webcam are important elements for success in the course.
