Course Overview

In this hour-long session an educational case is presented.  All symptoms, patient characteristics and test results are described in detail.  Together with the attendees, the best treatment decision is discussed.  The solution and clinical course of the case is revealed thereafter, and scientific evidence supporting the decision is discussed.

The aim of this course is to create a platform for discussion and exchange for residents and promote clinical skills in diagnosis and decision-making in cases based on scientific evidence.

Seize the opportunity to discuss challenging cases with fellow residents and a panel of renown specialists in the field!
