Rentgenology and Radiology (RAK_007)
About Study Course
Objective
To develop understanding of the physical basis of various radiological examination methods, such as radiography, ultrasonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, angiography, scintigraphy, positron emission tomography, basics of image interpretation, diagnostic possibilities, as well as clinical indications and contraindications. Understand their use and possibilities in most common pathology diagnostics.
Prerequisites
Basics of physics, human normal anatomy, physiology, pathology.
Learning outcomes
Upon completion of the course students are familiar with radiological methods, resolution capabilities, indications for the examinations. Understand the ionising radiation and it’s biological effect.
Students are able to recognise the radiological images of organs; see the pathological changes and recognise the most frequent diseases in general radiological images.
Students are able to analyse radiological descriptions and images, can recognise the most frequent diseases and their radiological signs.
