I happened to train in the days when all primips got X-ray pelvimetry prior to the initiation of Pitocin. One of the major advantages of X-ray pelvimetry was that those of us who had to learn to read it developed a much better understanding of the anatomy of the bony pelvis than today's residents. For those of us who are doing surgery for stress incontinence and vaginal vault prolapse, this knowlege is critical. I think Colcher Sussman pelvimetry should at least be taught in the residency programs just for this purpose.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
