Postgraduate Education & CME Course Overview

The UCSF Department of Radiology has one of the oldest and most respected CME programs in the United States. The UCSF School of Medicine offered its first CME program in 1963 and has since grown to more than 200 activities per year. Our Postgraduate Radiology department has been at the forefront of this growth, expanding its program to include more than 23 destination CME courses around the globe, 4 Virtual Colonoscopy Workshops, 19 visiting fellowships, 7 videotape and 8 CD-ROM courses.

Destination courses are held in resort locations and metropolitan areas from Hawaii to the Czech Republic, and include each of the major sub-specialties in the field of radiology utilizing plain film, CT (including 3-D imaging), MRI/A, Ultrasound and Interventional procedures.

For the most updated information about CME courses sponsored by UCSF Radiology please see our improved online calendar, which allows you to search for destination courses by date, specialty or location.

Frequent Attendance Program

Now imitated by others, UCSF Radiology is proud to be the first to offer a unique opportunity for a registrant to attend a UCSF Radiology CME destination course of his/her choice…for free! We appreciate our most loyal learners and offer a free course for every four attended.

How it Works:
Attendees who show proof of attendance at four (4) UCSF Radiology Postgraduate Education activities (courses and/or visiting fellowships) within a period of three consecutive, calendar years are eligible to a fee waiver for the fifth destination course.

• Certificates of attendance for previous courses are required; receipts are not valid proof of attendance
• At least two of the activities must be five-days in length.
• Courses attended on a complimentary basis do not qualify toward the enrollment waiver.
• Offer is not valid for courses outside of North America (but are valid for Hawaii, Caribbean, Canada and Mexico), small-group learning workshops or at-home learning activities.
• Some restrictions may apply and the offer is subject to change without notice

To Apply:
Send in copies of your certificates of attendance from the four UCSF Radiology activities which qualify you for free enrollment, with a letter indicating the course you wish to attend. The mailing address is below. Upon approval, you will receive confirmation within two weeks of submission.
