The Ultrasound Video Classroom Series
Many of the outstanding lectures from our programs at Jefferson are videotaped and assembled into a video "course" and recorded on DVD. These Video Classroom courses are especially cost and time effective, and each set of DVDs is accompanied by a free additional CME application form, a $100 value.
Who can benefit from the Series?
The video series is designed for physicians and sonographers who want to advance
their skills but who may not have the time and resources to attend a course
or seminar on each of the many subspecialties within ultrasound.

How do you apply for CME credit?
A self-assessment examination and evaluation form accompanies each video classroom set. Credit will be issued upon successful completion
of the examinations and evaluation form. Purchase
of an entire course entitles TWO viewers to apply for CME credit without additional
cost. For more than two viewers, additional CME applications are available at
$100 each.
After you have finished viewing the series, complete the CME evaluation form
and the self-assessment examination and return them to the Jefferson Ultrasound Institute. Credits are issued by
Jefferson Medical College.
This CME activity has been planned and produced in accordance with the ACCME
Essentials.
For physicians:
Jefferson Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University is accredited by the Accreditation
Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to sponsor continuing medical
education for physicians.
Jefferson Medical College designates this educational activity for a maximum
of (*) hours in Category 1 credit towards the AMA Physician's Recognition Award.
Each physician should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually
spent in the educational activity
(*) The credit hours are specified in the listing for each Video Classroom set.
All faculty participating in continuing medical education activities sponsored
by Jefferson Medical College are expected to disclose to the program audience
any real or apparent conflict(s) of interest related to the content of their
presentation(s). Full disclosure of faculty relationships will be made at the
activity.
Please note that credits are awarded per course, not per lecture or DVD. However, the individual may claim less than the maximum number of credits awarded if he or she spends less than the full time required to complete the activity.
