From foundations to intervention.

PILLAR 1 · Module (1)

Mastering Thyroid & Parathyroid Medicine

Physiology, pathology & every clinical decision pathway for thyroid and parathyroid disorders.

  • Physiology, embryology & anatomy

    Build a complete understanding of thyroid and parathyroid physiology, embryology and anatomy — and connect each concept directly to clinical decisions you make every day.

    38:20
  • Decoding thyroid labs like a specialist

    Read TSH patterns, antibodies and FT4 dynamics with precision. Recognize the complex hormonal patterns that trip up most clinicians.

    42:15
  • Hyperthyroidism & hypothyroidism

    Complete control over the diagnosis and management of hyper- and hypothyroidism — zero confusion, structured algorithms.

    45:10
  • The thyroiditis spectrum

    Diagnose the full thyroiditis spectrum "from the door" — subacute, silent, postpartum, Hashimoto and drug-induced.

    36:40
  • Goiter: simple, nodular & retrosternal

    Approach simple, nodular, retrosternal and tricky goiter cases with a clear, evidence-based framework.

    33:05
  • Parathyroid medicine & HPT

    Full parathyroid medicine: primary, secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism, with diagnostic and treatment algorithms.

    40:30
  • Emergencies: storm & myxedema coma

    Recognize and manage thyroid storm and myxedema coma effectively — the presentations you cannot afford to miss.

Become Imaging-Confident

High-level ultrasound + CT + MRI + nuclear scans taught by expert radiologists

  • High-resolution thyroid ultrasound

    Perform and read high-resolution thyroid ultrasound at a level even radiologists admire.

    44:00
  • TIRADS: ACR, EU & K systems

    Classify nodules and recommend management across the three major TIRADS systems.

    39:20
  • Lymph node & parathyroid imaging

    Map lymph nodes and localize parathyroid glands on ultrasound and cross-sectional imaging.

    35:15
  • CT & MRI of the neck

    Interpret neck CT and MRI with surgical landmarks for planning and tumor assessment.

    41:10
  • SPECT-CT & PET-CT fundamentals

    Fundamentals of functional imaging for complex thyroid and parathyroid cases.

    32:40
PILLAR 3 · Module (3)

Risk stratification, staging, treatment pathways, and follow-up strategies.

  • The Bethesda system

    Apply the Bethesda classification to cytology and understand its clinical implications.

    37:00
  • Molecular markers in management

    Integrate BRAF, RAS, RET and TERT into management strategies.

    34:25
  • ATA/NCCN risk stratification & RAI

    Stratify cancer risk and select radioactive iodine doses by patient category.

    43:15
  • DTC, MTC & anaplastic frameworks

    Develop individualized plans across differentiated, medullary and anaplastic thyroid cancer.

    40:00
  • Core needle biopsy

    Core needle biopsy technique and pathological correlation.

    31:30
  • Ethanol ablation

    Ethanol ablation of cystic and mixed nodules — dosing, technique and monitoring.
