PixiLearn aims to be a catalyst of knowledge and know-how in medical imaging.
Why is medical imaging training essential today?
Adapting to clinical developments
Medicine is evolving: diagnostic sequences are changing, therapies are evolving, prognoses are improving. We are living in remarkable times, with major therapeutic innovations in medicine.
As medicine evolves, the expectations of clinicians evolve too, and as medical imaging specialists we must keep pace with and adapt to these developments and to their expectations.
Our trainings aim to help you update your knowledge and keep up with these developments. We recruit experts in the various…

specialties, tumor imaging, musculoskeletal, cardiology, neurology…
These experts design trainings that enable you to keep your knowledge up to date and develop your practice to meet the needs of clinicians and patients.
We also involve clinicians in our trainings so that we can discuss with various specialists what they expect from medical imaging, and strengthen cooperation between imaging physicians and clinicians.
Adapting to constant technological developments:
(AI, new equipment, new tracers…)
Our imaging specialties are technological specialties undergoing constant change. Our practices must be able to adapt in order to seize relevant developments and make them accessible to our patients.
Our trainings also address this need: keeping the community up to date on technological innovations, passing on feedback and experience between teams, sharing practices and accelerating the spread of innovation in the service of our patients.
Through our trainings, we believe we can accelerate the adoption of innovations in medical imaging thanks to better-trained, more proactive physicians who are able to seize the right innovations that will benefit patient care.
Ensuring patient safety and radiation protection
As imaging physicians, we are also responsible for patient safety while their examination is being performed.
Patient preparation and the management of at-risk cases (pregnancy, allergy risk…) are all situations in which caregivers must secure the patient's pathway while their imaging is being performed.
Optimizing practices, particularly acquisition protocols, in order to deliver accurate, relevant information with…

the lowest reasonably achievable dose, is one of the imperatives of medical imaging professionals.
These aspects are also taken into account in our training offer and enable us to help make medical imaging practices safer.

Funding and regulatory framework (DPC, OPCO…)
PixiLearn trainings are part of a clear regulatory framework and can benefit from suitable funding schemes (DPC, OPCO), depending on your professional status.
Validity of your Continuing Professional Development path
PixiLearn is registered with ANDPC for continuing education actions in medical imaging.
Trainings that have obtained ANDC certification are announced in our catalog. These trainings validate the continuing education path of the concerned healthcare professionals and are also directly visible on the ANDPC website.
This certification is obtained by Pixilib training by training after review of the competencies of the training designer(s) and review of the pedagogical program.
However, not all trainings are DPC-eligible. Trainings without this recognition are simply due to the fact that they cover subjects that ANDPC does not consider as priority in the training of healthcare professionals. You can of course enroll voluntarily if they match your personal expectations; they will not be funded by ANDPC but may still be funded by OPCO if you are employed (see below).
Coverage terms for self-employed and salaried professionals
The training funding system in France has different articulations depending on your status.
If you are a self-employed healthcare professional under convention or a salaried employee of a private healthcare center under convention, your trainings may benefit from ANDPC funding for DPC-eligible trainings. In this framework, each year you benefit from an hourly draw entitlement to distribute among the validating trainings of your choice. Each training hour you use in this framework allows you to benefit from coverage of pedagogical fees to fund the training organization and from an hourly compensation for your time devoted to your training.
Pixilib strives to follow the package eligible for coverage of pedagogical fees to offer trainings with no out-of-pocket cost.
If you want to validate the DPC coverage, you need to validate your registration on your ANDPC account before the start of the training (see procedures on your ANDPC account).
If you are a civil servant or salaried in a non-conventioned training center, your trainings can be covered by OPCO within the limit of the funding allocated to your company (each OPCO publishes its rules).
Pixilib is Qualiopi-certified, this certification thus allows the funding of your trainings by OPCO.
Finally, you can also fund yourself on your own funds; the training you follow is usually contracted in the name of the company in which you practice and should constitute a deductible charge in your accounting year.
Last point, at Pixilib we are committed to not excluding anyone from our trainings: personnel in initial training (medical interns…) benefit from a (very) reduced price. We know it is an age when training needs are significant while funding capacity is still low — it is natural for us to take this specificity into account.
