National Imaging Informatics Course course returns

The next term of the National Imaging Informatics Course (NIIC) will be held online March 4 to 8. NIIC is made possible through a partnership between RSNA, the Digital Pathology Association (DPA), and the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM). RSNA sponsors the radiology track of the course. The course is an accelerated, week-long online experience for imaging informaticists seeking to expand their expertise. It offers imaging informatics education to trainees, practicing radiologists, and allied professionals around the world. It covers a range of topics from clinical workflow, PACS, and standards to data science, algorithms, and the business of informatics. The course format consists of live online lectures, online small-group discussions, and on-demand content. There are pre- and post-course assessments and homework assignments throughout the term. RSNA said that while the course was designed with fourth-year radiology residents in mind, it benefits anyone interested in increasing their skillset within the field. These could include students, healthcare professionals at all levels, and industry partners. Successful participants receive a certificate and qualify for up to 20 hours of SIIM IIP Credits for ABII certification and recertification. The early registration deadline is February 8.
