Radiation Oncology Biology & Physics Online Review (CME VIDEOS)
The Osler Institute recorded its live 2016 complete Radiation Oncology Biology and Physics Review Course using cutting-edge technology and made it available to you .
These video and audio files are kept ” in the cloud ” making it possible for you to access them from any location at any time as long as you have an internet connection . You can watch or listen on your phone , computer , or tablet to enhance your learning without incurring travel expenses or taking time away from your practice . A downloaded copy of the syllabus corresponding to the Video/Audio lectures is provided with each online review for you to utilize while watching or as a free standing study or clinical practice guide .
Senior trainees and practicing physicians can get a thorough update on clinical knowledge from this study , which also aids in exam preparation. The focus is on evidence-based medicine , standards of care that are pertinent to the board , as well as novel ideas , therapies , imaging applications and the molecular and cellular biology concepts that underlie them .
