Overview

Case of the Day is a new self-assessment learning activity for the CAR 2027 Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM). Delegates will be presented with a series of clinically relevant, image-based cases designed to assess knowledge, interpretation, and clinical reasoning at approximately the PGY-4 level. Delegates will independently answer each case, submit their responses, receive expert answers and rationales, review their individual performance, identify learning needs, and develop a plan for further learning. 

The program will consist of 12 cases presented over two conference days, with 6 cases released on Friday and 6 cases released on Saturday.

• Analyze selected cases to identify the most appropriate diagnosis or interpretation. (CanMEDS Roles: Medical Expert, Scholar) 

This activity is an Accredited Self-Assessment Program (Section 3) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and approved by the Canadian Association of Radiologists. The Case of the Day is approved for a maximum of 2.0 hours (6 Section 3 credits) 

Program Agenda 

Delegates can participate in the full program (12 cases) or 1-day only (6 cases) on Friday or Saturday. Each 6-case series should take approximately 1 hour to complete (10 minutes/case)
