10:00 AM - 4:30 PM | Trainee Day This year's theme is body imaging so be prepared for lectures on high yield topics ranging from an introduction to acute mesenteric ischemia to an approach to interpreting a post-TACE liver examination. We have an exciting plenary session where fellows and early practice attendings share their experiences as residents and offer tips and advice they wish they had known. Join us on this day dedicated towards helping radiology trainees across Canada with not only honing their interpretive skills but also navigating their future career goals. 10:00AM – 10:05 AM Welcome and Opening Remarks 10:05AM – 11:30 AM What I Wish I Knew in Residency and Fellowship Q&A 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM Break 12:30PM – 1:20 PM Critical Imaging: Genitourinary Trauma and Mesenteric Emergencies

8:00 AM - 4:00 PM | Workshops Pre-registration for the workshop is required. Additional fees apply. Registration details can be found here. This intensive one-day hands-on workshop will feature dedicated training and sessions focused on emergent pathology and will provide practical problem-solving tools for the general radiologist. Designed for practicing radiologists, the workshop is structured to simulate real-case reporting. Short high-impact didactic reviews will be followed by multiple interpretation sessions where participants can review complete image files under the supervision of expert faculty. There is an emphasis on common pathologies, as well as a focus on pitfalls and missed diagnoses.
