Programm
Course Overview
This course introduces practical guidance on how to set up, implement, and support a medical retina virtual clinic in the context of the NHS long-term plan which emphasises the use of eHealth and telemedicine systems to address the global health challenge of eye disease. It covers diagnostic imaging for ocular diseases with an emphasis on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and OCT Angiography (OCTA) acquisition and interpretation in macular diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusions, and hydroxycholorquine maculopathy.
Course Structure
This short course is aimed at working professionals who wish to advance their knowledge through postgraduate-level study, without the time or financial commitment required to undertake a face to face course. You will take two modules that are designed to give you an in-depth knowledge of diagnostic imaging in ophthalmology along with a pragmatic overview of telemedicine and digital health with an emphasis of application in the setting of a medical retinal virtual clinic. The module will be delivered over 2-weeks with 16 hours of online content. On the final day of the course you will have a two-hour interactive online discussion and case studies with the course tutors.
