I have the antenatal and postnatal pictures if you would like to see them. with best wishes,nayana At Tue, 19 Jun 2001, Jose Ferreira wrote: > >I am a Obstetrician and Clinical Geneticist at Garcia de Orta Hospital, >ALMADA, PORTUGAL >One of my colleagues, Manuel Hermida, was invited to present a talk at >the >World Congress of Perinatal Medicine to be held in Barcelona, Spain on >Sptember 23-27, 2001 on 'Errors in fetal ultrasound', which is a hell of >a >subject.

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.
