EUSOBI Journal Club
Keep up-to-date with the current literature is essential for both residents and specialists, but it is not always easily doable. Many times, a critical appraisal of a study would be beneficial, but it is for many almost impossible.
That is why the EUSOBI Young Club decided to promote an online journal club with the aims of:
- disseminating new information in the field of breast diagnostic;
- promoting evidence-based medicine;
- teaching critical appraisal skills for reading and writing a scientific work;
- providing an opportunity for an interactive discussion with junior and senior experts.
Journal Club places are limited and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Early registration is recommended. The Journal Club is open for EUSOBI members only. Additionally, EUSOBI members will be able to view the recording online at the EUSOBI website about 2-3 weeks after the Journal Club.
The discussants will focus on:
- presenting the structure and content on the paper;
- discussing the most relevant information for the clinical practice;
- discussing the other recent literature on the topic;
- sharing their experience.
Certificate of attendance / EUSOBI CME points
The EUSOBI Journal Club is accredited with 1 EUSOBI CME point per session! Only live-viewing can be accredited. Watching recordings will not be accredited. These EUSOBI CME points count towards the EUSOBI diploma.
In order to receive the certificate, the attendee has to complete the feedback survey which will be provided after the Journal Club. Furthermore, the attendance time must be longer than 45 minutes. The certificates will be provided by email after approx. 2 weeks.
Next Journal Club
We are in planning for the next Journal Club. As soon as a date is fixed, you will find it here.
