Course Overview
The student will be taught how to use the different imaging modalities properly & which imaging modality fits particular situation.
The student should also learn how to read the radiographs of common clinical problems e.g. he or she should learn how to diagnose different fractures, pneumothorax, pneumonia, intestinal obstruction, pneumoperitoneum etc….. Not only that the graduated doctor should also learn how to read CT scan in patients with Stroke & head injury.
Lastly the student should be taught about the update of Radiology & that radiology is no more used for diagnosis only, it is taking part in the therapy as well i.e. Interventional Radiology.
