Best practices for creating a Seminar

A step-by-step guide with best practices and advice for creating high-quality, case-based teaching sessions.

🔹 Step 1. Pre-Upload: Prepare Your Case Data

Before uploading a case:

  • Preview and remove unnecessary series or images

  • Aim to upload only essential images or series, keeping the study as small as possible 

Fewer images help:

  • Maintain audience focus

  • Improves upload and access speeds

⚠️ You won’t be able to delete a series or image from your case after starting the upload.

⚠️ Preview and deselect all unwanted series or images before uploading the case data or creating a draft.


🔹 Step 2. Draft Case

When creating your Draft case:

💡 Tip: Adding complete details early will streamline seminar setup.

  • Publish the case to the event group or your group.
  • 🔧 Optional: After publication, use the Add Study to Case, Edit Case, or Revert to Draft options to include more content or make further adjustments to your case.

🔹 Step 3. Create a Collection - Case Playlist

  • Create a new Collection and add each published case to the collection via case options.

  • Your collection can include your cases posted in other groups as long as:

    • You are the publisher of the case and have created the collection

      seminar-1

  • Use drag and drop to order your cases in the collection

  • When ready, click Create a Seminar from the collection options at the top.

🔹 Step 4. Curate Your New Seminar

Use the ✏️ pencil tool to edit:

  • Modify the Seminar name, Case titles, Diagnosis, and Clinical Detail fields (optional)

  • Hide or unhide cases not needed, and the Diagnosis and Clinical Details fields.

  • For each case, you can add multiple-choice questions and Polls using the Questions button.

  • Adding Slides to a Seminar

    1. Prepare your slides in PowerPoint, Google Slides, or another application.

    2. Export them as JPEG, PNG, or PDF.

    3. Upload the exported slides to the seminar.

      • Use this for title pages, learning objectives, or case summaries after the DICOM images.

    💡 Tip: Invest in high-quality slides—they can be reused in future seminars, saving time and effort.

🔹 Step 5. Final Review and Share

  • Review the seminar from start to finish before presenting it.

  • Check that cases, slides, and text fields not meant for the audience to see at launch are hidden.

  • Click Share, and set access start/end dates, + Add a password.seminar share

  • Tip: Use a URL shortener or hyperlink to tidy the long link (optional)

  • Present the seminar to reveal answers and control hidden fields.

♻️ Step 6. Reuse and Maintain

📝 Additional Tips

  • Editing Cases Within Seminars
    Changes made inside a seminar will not affect the original published case — ideal for adapting the same case to different audiences.
  • The default viewer layout of the original case will be applied and cannot be modified for a seminar case.

🔒 Locking Access to an audience link
To restrict audience access to your shared seminar at any time:

Share the seminar again - changing the password, and/or defining new access dates.

💡 Tip: To practice or preview the audience view, open the shared link in an incognito/private tab (Companion Mode).
