Welcome to the SCMR Introductory Course in CMR!
***WEBPAX UPDATE*** Please do not use the password 'Welcome', it will not work. Please use this updated password: SCMRscmr ***WEBPAX UPDATE***
This course is designed to cover theory, knowledge and some of the skills required for core training in CMR. The course takes approximately 10 hours to complete and is split into 10 topics. There is a strong interactive component, with questions at the end of each topic, as well as lots of case reviews along the way.
The course is not designed to replicate the practical aspects of scan acquisition and live reporting that can only be gained from working in a CMR department. The course will, however, provide you with 10 hours of theoretical and case-based learning, and contribute 35 online cases towards level I, II or III certificate.
If you are enrolled in the course via SCMR, a certificate will be provided at the end. Non-members will need to sign-up as a guest to complete.
Please access "Resources" to review materials for each topic. After reviewing the materials, access and complete the quiz for each topic. After completing the quiz for Chapter 10, please click "Submit Credit" to receive your certificate of achievement.
Thanks to WebPAX for providing imaging software, and to the Heart hospital and the British Society of CMR for course content.
