Previous courses have been approved by the Royal College of Physicians for 18 CPD points and endorsed by SCMR for level 1 certification. We have submitted applications for the November 2023 course.

Other Information:
This established course has been running for over 12 years, King’s provides an exceptional faculty of internationally renowned experts in the field of cardiac MRI.
It covers the basic principles of CMR, its clinical indications and role in a multi-modality imaging environment. Delegates will learn in lectures and cases sessions, at the end of the course they will have a solid understanding of when to refer a patient for Cardiovascular MRI and how to interpret CMR images and reporting.

Feedback from previous online courses:

  • I will be able to provide better medical advice to my patients and have a better understanding of CMR

·         I attended the live version in 2019 and the online version now. They were both great.

·         Attending from abroad, I prefer the online version. Excellent balance between talks, cases and interactivity.  Many thanks.

·         I like the online format. Still able to interact as the number of delegates it kept to a good level. I gained a lot from the course. Thank you for organising an excellent course.

·         Attending from abroad, I prefer the online version. Excellent balance between talks, cases and interactivity.  Many thanks.

·         Online is great!

·         This was my first formal teaching on cardiac MRI and was of huge benefit to my learning as a UK cardiology trainee.

·         Case reviews were good.

·         I am new to CMR, I learned many thinks. Too many things learned to list.

·         It put me on the road as previously I had no idea about cardiac MRI

·         For a new starter this course covered everything from CMR physics to everything related

·         I found the online format engaging and flexible for my needs.

·         Thanks – great course

·         Very good, pitched at the right level for me with a lot of interesting cases. All speakers clearly passionate about their topics.

·         I particularly enjoyed this course and I am more interested now to learn more in the area of CMR, which was also one of my goals before enrolling in this course!

·         Lots of care and effort

·         Thank you. I really enjoyed the course. Organisation was great

·         Thank you very much, this has been an excellent course

King’s College London: CMR – Theory and Practical Applications for Radiographers

Next event date: December 6, 2023

Venue: King's College London

Dates:      Wednesday 6 December 2023

Venue:     London or Online MS Teams

Further information and registratio details: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/short-courses/cmr-theory-practical-applications-radiographers

The course covers basic MRI safety/physics and focuses on the theory and practical skills involved with carrying out a simple CMR procedure as well as the more complex scans such as Perfusion imaging and Aortogram. We provide an exceptional faculty of internationally renowned experts in the field of cardiac MRI.

Topics include:

·       Clinical Value of CMR

·       MR Safety/CMR Physics

·       Scanning device patients

·       ‘How to’/ ‘Principles of’:Basic CMR

·       Perfusion scanning

·       Aortograms and Flow imaging

·       T1/T2 and ECV Mapping

·       Lunchtime talk ‘ Contrast safety’

·       Congenital Cardiac MRI

·       Tips and Tricks:

·       -The difficult patient

·       -Ectopics vs Arrythmias

·       -Artefacts

·       LGE- CMRs Golden Egg

  • Scanner visit – in person attendees

·       Post processing of images

Feedback from the March 2022/June 2023 courses:

  • Thank you for organising a very informative course
  • Thanks for letting me be a part of this course! It was very helpful.
  • I learned a lot about late gadolinium enhancement especially during the interactive session I found this most useful.
  • Lots and lots. Particularly enjoyed the presentations on scanning devices, stress perfusion and principals of basic CMR. We are starting a cardiac service from scratch and this course has given me a lot of ideas and hints and tips to use and incorporate in to practice.
  • It was overall a good refresh of all CMR. Will be trying Dark Blood images LGE
  • Most of the cardiac material is as new to me and has given me loads to develop on.
  • Yes learnt lots of new and useful things. Such as discussion on angiography techniques; free breathing/real time imaging techniques; and flow/venc positioning in the congenital imaging talk.
  • LGE by Dr Adriana Villa and Tissue characterization by Dr Tevfik are fantastic.
  • I learnt many new things, especially in regard to anatomy, planning and clinical cases
  • Practical planning and pathology. Good mix of radiographer and cardiologist presenters.
