Like "visualize whirled peas" or something?

Sheesh! Make it "visually reconstruct" or whatever. The bottom line will be, if you didn't visualize it, you missed it. And if you see it and don't write it down, you can't prove you visualized it.

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.
