Practical Skills Assessment

This module helps you to further develop your pattern recognition skills by applying anatomy, physiology and pathology knowledge to image interpretation for a range of examinations. You&#39;ll utilise the University&#39;s Picture, Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) lab to facilitate the image interpretation sessions. You&#39;ll also be introduced to the role of the reporting radiographer, participate in reporting sessions and develop the discussions related to imaging and the radiographic findings. These skills will help you develop to your knowledge and understanding of this role and how it supports advanced practice and contributes to patient-centred care.
