To report the experience of the Brazilian Program of Pediatric Teleradiology in combining teleconferencing and a virtual learning environment for services integration, collaborative research, and continuing education in pediatric radiology.
We performed virtual meetings from March 2005 to October 2010 on pediatric radiology-related themes, using a combination of videoconferences and Web conferences, which were recorded and made available in an open-source software (Moodle) for reuse.
We performed 58 virtual sessions: 29 anatomical-clinical-radiological sessions, 28 on upgrading themes, and 1 virtual symposium. The average of connected points was 12 by videoconference and 39 by Web conference, and of 450 participants per event. At the time of this writing, 318 physicians and students are registered in the virtual learning environment, with a total of 14,678 accesses.
Telemedicine is being included in pediatric radiology practice, as a means for distance education, training, and continuing integration between groups.
报告巴西儿科远程放射学计划在结合远程会议和虚拟学习环境方面的经验,以实现儿科放射学服务整合、协作研究和继续教育。
我们于 2005 年 3 月至 2010 年 10 月期间,就儿科放射学相关主题,采用视频会议和网络会议相结合的方式,开展了虚拟会议,这些会议都被录制下来,并在开源软件(Moodle)中提供,以便重复使用。
我们共进行了 58 次虚拟会议:29 次解剖学-临床-放射学会议、28 次升级主题会议和 1 次虚拟研讨会。视频会议的平均连接点数为 12,网络会议的平均连接点数为 39,每次活动的参会人数为 450 人。截至本文撰写之时,已有 318 名医生和学生在虚拟学习环境中注册,总访问量为 14678 次。
远程医疗正被纳入儿科放射学实践中,作为远程教育、培训和小组间持续整合的手段。
