  • A good coverage of topics. A few hiccups with technology but excellent support from the Informed team. Keep it up Informed you do a very good job.
  • Superb course, highly recommended!
  • No real issues with PostDicom other than my initial access. The actual PACS viewer is very good and perfectly sufficient on this type of course.
  • I thought the PACS was very good and had no issues in using it and I found the course well organised and supported.
  • I had one or two episodes of slow Pacs service, otherwise excellent easy and readily available
  • Very clear images and relatively easy to use.
  • Pacs lagged for a short time, alerted the Informed team and they restarted and it went back to working brilliantly after.
  • Good coverage of topics through interactive cases; quality of speakers excellent and having the catch up service available later – all very good.
  • Good to have lots of great cases, interaction and answering of questions and good Informed support if needed
  • Great IT platform to view cases

  • Very good cases, clear and concise lectures, good content, good coverage, good presentations
  • Excellent topics and speakers, well delivered and good response to questions
  • It was an very good course with, well focussed topics, the speakers and the timings of each session with appropriate breaks.
  • The topics were all very useful and relevant to my practice. It will improve my reporting in all areas of gynae imaging. This has also increased my confidence in potentially tackling some pelvic floor imaging/proctograms.
  • Other than the quality content, I did not have to travel! and the process was easy to access with good first quality lectures
  • All very good session topics in a good case based format, great quality speakers… and in a virtual format, I attended from home – no travelling.
  • Excellent diversity of cases and lecturers plus the ability to join online and save travel and hotel expenses; I can review some of the lectures again in my own time, all in the price!
  • Great cases on a good platform. Good range of topics over the 2 days. Will be glad to be able to view recordings again afterwards to re-review a couple of areas that will be particularly valuable to my service.
  • I  appreciate the comprehensible presentations of important and relevant topics and tips and tricks for our practice
  • Ability to view the cases and case mix provided was really good. Opportunity to interact with the speakers
  • I liked the liberal use of chat function as it lets shy people ask questions as well. I felt very engaged but at the same time relaxed as I knew I wouldn’t be picked upon individually as some of the courses do.
  • Great variety of cases with explanations, the use of individual PACS review; the interactive polling and the well thought out reporting approaches. All really good – thanks.
  • I prefer face to face courses but this was the next best thing. I think having as much slido interaction as possible is helpful.

  • It will improve me in my gynae reporting. Some areas were refresher sessions but most were genuinely new things that I can bring into my future practice.
  • Great refresher on gynae malignancy.
  • Will help in my general gynae MRI which is mainly oncology based. Mesh scans do come through and that session was really helpful.
  • Learnt a lot and I will be more confident in reporting.
  • As a Gynae Radiology consultant this day has been hugely insightful. Especially having just established a new service for pelvic floor imaging.
  • I will feel more confident in the reports and will start using protocol mesh
  • Learnt a good things applicable to my practice, really much more confidence in pelvic imaging
  • I learnt a lot, I live in a very remote city where as an IR who has an interest in Gynae IR, I have been asked to take on Gynae cross sectional work for the region. This course was a great start to this new venture.
  • I have benefitted a lot form this course, highly recommended for my colleagues that want to be more comfortable with gynaecological reporting.
