How to become a global radiologist through Global Radiology Training Programme (GRTP)
.Introducing the Global Radiology Training Programme (GRTP), India's first integrated radiology programme designed for students and working professionals. Join us for an exclusive live Q&A session featuring Dr. Sreenivasa Raju Kalidindi, Director of ARI Academy and CEO & Medical Director of Apollo Radiology International, along with Dr. Subhasis Chakraborty, Course Director and Professor of Paediatric Radiology & Consultant Paediatric Radiologist at Oxford, UK. Discover how GRTP can help you become a global radiologist and unlock new career opportunities. Dr. Sreenivasa Raju and Dr. Subhasis Chakraborty will discuss the programme's benefits, and outcomes, and answer your questions. GRTP is designed to meet the needs of Radiologists in training and Junior Radiologists seeking skill enhancement and better career prospects. Participants can undertake the programme alongside their MD or DNB or directly after completion, enabling them to pursue additional exams like EDiR, FRCR, MiCR, and more. This multiple qualification approach enhances professional credentials. By bringing international training standards and renowned faculty to Indian radiologists, GRTP eliminates the need for scarce and competitive training positions abroad. Acquiring additional qualifications such as FRCR expands job opportunities globally, including the UK, Middle East, Australia, and beyond. For those seeking specialist training abroad, GRTP strengthens resumes and enhances competitiveness. Completing GRTP provides Indian radiologists with a competitive edge in the global job market. Don't miss this opportunity to elevate your radiology career with GRTP. Join us for the live Q&A session and gain valuable insights.

Upcoming Case Discussions
Acne: Disorders and Treatment Approaches
Acne is a common dermatological condition caused by clogged pores, excess sebum production, bacterial growth, and inflammation. It can manifest as blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, or cysts, often leading to scarring if untreated. Various factors, including hormonal changes, diet, stress, and genetics, influence its severity. Treatment approaches range from topical and oral medications, such as retinoids, antibiotics, and hormonal therapy, to advanced procedures like chemical peels and laser therapy. A personalized skincare regimen, along with lifestyle modifications, plays a crucial role in managing and preventing acne.
Clinician’s Approach to Atrial Fibrillation
A clinician's approach to atrial fibrillation (AF) involves a comprehensive assessment of the patient's symptoms, underlying causes, and stroke risk. Initial evaluation includes ECG confirmation and identification of reversible triggers such as hyperthyroidism or electrolyte imbalances. Management typically focuses on rate or rhythm control, often using medications like beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or antiarrhythmics. Anticoagulation therapy is considered based on stroke risk assessment tools like CHA₂DS₂-VASc. In some cases, procedures such as cardioversion or catheter ablation may be recommended. Ongoing follow-up and lifestyle modifications are essential to prevent recurrence and manage comorbidities.
Genetic Screening and Its Role in Embryo Selection for IVF
Genetic screening plays a crucial role in the process of embryo selection for in vitro fertilization (IVF) by identifying potential genetic disorders in embryos before implantation. This screening, often referred to as preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), involves analyzing embryos for chromosomal abnormalities or specific genetic mutations. It helps in selecting the healthiest embryos, reducing the risk of passing on inherited conditions, and increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy. PGT can identify conditions such as Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, and certain inherited cancers, allowing parents to make informed decisions about which embryos to implant. This technology enhances the overall outcome of IVF by improving the quality of embryos and reducing the likelihood of miscarriage. Ultimately, genetic screening offers a valuable tool for optimizing reproductive success and promoting healthier pregnancies.
Congenital Uterine Anomalies
Congenital uterine anomalies are structural abnormalities of the uterus resulting from improper fusion, canalization, or resorption of the Müllerian ducts during fetal development. These anomalies include septate, bicornuate, unicornuate, and didelphys uterus, among others. They can be asymptomatic or associated with infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, preterm birth, or abnormal menstruation. Diagnosis is typically made using imaging modalities like ultrasound, MRI, or hysterosalpingography. Treatment depends on the type and severity of the anomaly, with surgical correction such as hysteroscopic septum resection often indicated in symptomatic cases. Early detection is crucial for optimizing reproductive outcomes and guiding appropriate management strategies.
Management of Postoperative Pain: Best Practices for GP’s
Effective management of postoperative pain is crucial for promoting recovery and preventing complications. General practitioners should start by assessing pain severity using appropriate scales, then tailor the treatment plan based on the patient's medical history and the type of surgery. A combination of pharmacological approaches, such as non-opioid analgesics (e.g., NSAIDs) and opioids when necessary, should be used to minimize pain while reducing the risk of addiction. Multimodal strategies, including physical therapy and non-pharmacological techniques like cold therapy or mindfulness, can further enhance pain relief. Close follow-up is essential to adjust the treatment as needed and ensure the patient's pain is well-controlled.
