An assessment of CME needs of Canadian urologists

The Canadian Urological Association has recently developed a new continuing medical education vehicle, Video Journal in Urology. The editorial content of this quarterly production is determined by the results of a needs assessment, the results of which are described in this paper. The needs assessment, as a two-page questionnaire, was mailed to 504 urologists. One hundred and eight-three responded, a response rate of 36.3%. The topic areas ranked as most interesting were largely centered around the broad topic of prostate cancer.
