The internet is a good source of continuing medical education in Rheumatology. The major Rheumatology journals are available online, and there are good sites that serve as portals to the latest advances in the field. Abstracts and updates can be obtained while conferences are in progress, followed by reports of the highlights once the conference is finished.
Best sites for rheumatologists:
RheumatologyLinx
This site gives daily summaries of rheumatology journals, and has an email
system to notify you of new articles of interest to you. The site
requires registration which can be obtained free of charge.
American College
of Rheumatology
An essential site for rheumatologists as a source of meeting information
and registration details as well as limited access to the ACR journal
Arthritis and Rheumatism (full access for members). Other clinicians may
find it helpful as a source of updates and patient information.
