Get started
Try CMR Orbit for free in the Test Flight or purchase your first case bundle to get started. You can always add further bundles later.
If you already have an account, use the same email address at checkout. Your new bundles will be added to your existing profile, including after the Test Flight.
Support
Our cases are designed to deepen your CMR knowledge and support accurate diagnostic decision-making. To pass, you must correctly answer at least 80% of the questions and provide the correct final diagnoses.
Each case may be attempted up to three times. To strengthen your understanding and assist your reporting, we recommend reviewing the instructional videos and participating in our 'Meet the Expert' online sessions.
Upon successful completion, the cases can be documented in your logbook and submitted toward initial certification or recertification by national and international professional societies such as DGK, SCMR, and EACVI. Each bundle is accredited by Ärztekammer Berlin for 16 Category I CME credits.
You can purchase additional bundles at https://pay.cmr-orbit.com/ or follow the bundle links on this CMR Orbit landing page. Use the same email address as your existing account.
There, you can explore all available case bundles, pricing options, and contact details for making a purchase. If you plan to purchase multiple bundles at once, you may be eligible for a discount. For any further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us, we're happy to help!
Yes, CMR-Orbit is offered exclusively online, and that is precisely what makes it so convenient & flexible. You can access the course anytime, from anywhere, and progress at your own pace, whether you're at home, at work, or on the go.
The online format also includes teaching videos from CMR Level III experts that guide you through key concepts and case interpretations, helping you build a strong foundation in CMR. Combined with interactive case work and expert-led sessions, Orbit provides a comprehensive learning experience tailored to fit your schedule and learning style.
We hope this won't be the case. With the help of our instructional videos and the 'Meet the Expert' sessions, you'll have access to individualized guidance to help you successfully complete each case.
Each case is evaluated independently, so even if you're unable to complete a single case within a bundle, all successfully completed cases will still be certified and can be included in your logbook and overall case experience.
If you feel that special circumstances may have contributed to not passing a case, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're happy to discuss your situation and work together to find a suitable solution.
No, CMR Orbit does not provide direct certification for Level II or Level III. Final certification is exclusively granted by the respective national or international societies, each of which defines its own criteria. You can find detailed requirements on the websites of the individual certifying bodies.
However, for both initial certification and recertification, these societies typically require documented case-reading experience across a broad spectrum of CMR indications.
CMR Orbit enables you to acquire this case experience and we provide official certification of your completed case portfolio on CMR Orbit, which can be submitted as part of your application to the certifying society.
If you feel like the platform lacks a particular feature to improve your learning experience or found a bug we are always happy for constructive feedback. We will evaluate your request and add the feature to our development roadmap, if the change makes sense for the overall platform.
