Masterclass in Imaging of Pancreatic Tumours
Fri 17 Mar 2023 Online
This masterclass course will be delivered online. Please read the joining instructions before registration.
The online Masterclass in Pancreatic Tumours (2nd edition course) is a one-day workstation-based teaching course which will highlight current imaging techniques, image interpretation and pitfalls in the evaluation of solid and cystic pancreatic tumours.
Learning objectives for this course:
- To learn the guidelines-based imaging criteria for pancreatic cancer staging.
- To understand the optimal approach to imaging patients post neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for pancreatic cancer.
- To assess treatment response, complications of treatment and detection of recurrent disease.
- To acquire knowledge on different cystic lesions of the pancreas, in order to be able to interpret the different imaging findings of cystic lesions and to understand the best approach to these different lesions.

A stimulating and engaging learning experience – reviewing cases with the experts!
The online ICIS Interactive series is designed as an advanced cancer imaging course for Radiologists, who would like to gain deeper understanding into the imaging of specific cancers through case-based learning. The courses in this series have been rated excellent by many participants.
This one-day online masterclass comprises four sessions, as outlined in the programme. Presentation of each topic will commence with a lecture followed by mentored review of 8-10 carefully selected cases to facilitate hands-on case-based learning.
Delegates are advised to use two screens on the day, which can be a PC and tablet/laptop. As this is an interactive course, we ask that you join using a device with a camera to achieve the optimal experience.
A comprehensive workbook to reinforce learning is provided to guide participants through the cases, with each case chosen to illustrate specific learning points. In advance of the course we will courier a printed & bound copy of the workbook, for you to work through.
By the end of the course, all participants will have benefitted from mentored case-based learning of 35 - 40 cases, each chosen with specific learning points.
All delegates will be emailed a CPD certificate on completion of the course.
Registration Closed
Please note that spaces are limited to 24 participants and will be sold on a first come first served basis. Book early to avoid disappointment!

Participants must have access to two screens for the duration of the course. As this is an interactive course, we ask that you join using a device with a camera to achieve the optimum experience. Options include two screens linked to a computer (desktop / laptop) or a single screen on a computer (desktop / laptop) and an additional separate mobile device (e.g. computer tablet). We recommend a minimum desktop screen size of 22” (ideally 1920x1080 HD) for the image viewing platform, while the other (potentially smaller) device will provide interactive dialogue using Zoom.
For viewing all cases, participants will receive a unique URL and personalised login credentials to access the online portal. The portal uses sophisticated browser-based technology, works with a very broad selection of Operating Systems and devices, and allows for complete access with zero install footprint.
A broadband connection (rather than WiFi) is strongly recommended with a minimum connection of 8 Mbps to access the Application Portal. The portal will work with any operating system capable of running HTML5-enabled browsers including, but not limited to:
- Chrome
- Safari
- Firefox
- Microsoft Edge
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 11
Concurrently, Zoom will be used to deliver the introductory lecture for each of the four topics, and will enable interaction with faculty members throughout the whole course. Additional minimum bandwidth of 4 Mbps is recommended for Zoom, i.e. a combined non-shared bandwidth of 12 Mbps should provide a requisite learning experience.
Online technical support will be available throughout the course, with a dedicated technical support session at the start of the course to ensure connectivity. Attendance during the technical support session is imperative; if we discover that your connectivity is not satisfactory, you may not be able to participate in the course.
If you are concerned that your bandwidth connection speed is not sufficient, we can provide testing access to a remote system as part of the pre-event support. A guide to your bandwidth information can be checked using a quick speed test, e.g. https://fast.com
This course provides 7 CPD credits in accordance with the CPD scheme of the Royal College of Radiologists, UK.
All delegates will be emailed a CPD certificate of attendance on completion of the course.
