ACR-WFPI, Basic Course in Pediatric Radiology

The ACR has partnered with Grace Children’s Hospital in Port-au-Prince, Haiti and sponsored its second radiology course - with a pediatric focus - on March 25 and 26, 2013. The course aimed to offer advice and guidance to physicians lacking access to pediatric imaging expertise.

The WFPI was invited to participate in the teaching; the WFPI team included 5 representatives: Drs. Ron Cohen, Marthe Munden, Jennifer Nicholas, Eva Rubio and Rebecca Stein-Wexler.

The third course is coming up in March 2014, again with WFPI's willing participation. SEE RIGHT FOR MORE DETAILS.

Our thanks to ACR and Grace Children's for the excellent planning and roll out of these courses.
