M1 courses aim to attract residents, general radiologists with experience in paediatric radiology and paediatric radiologists at the beginning of their fellowship/career. Module I courses are followed by a 30 Multiple choice question (MCQ)/Multiple response question (MRQ)-exam, run electronically on-line, a few hours to a few days after the course.
Module 2 (advanced course) will run onsite or hybrid over 3-4 days, followed by a 50 MCQ-exam run electronically on-line 1-3 days after the course.
