Learning Objectives

  • Conventional Radiography and ultrasound

    This subject aims to provide students with the basic knowledge to perform some of the most common routine conventional radiological examinations that may be required in a radiodiagnostic department. The proper execution of these radiological examinations requires a good understanding of the equipment, materials, procedures and protocols used to enable the radiologist to reach a proper diagnosis. In addition, basic ultrasound and ultrasound equipment will be provided as in recent years they have replaced many conventional radiology techniques, making them obsolete.

  • APPARECCHIATURE E TECNICHE DELL'APPARATO CARDIOVASCOLARE E DEL MEDIASTINO

    to make known the imaging diagnostic techniques and their clinical applications with particular reference to cardiovascular and mediastinic structures and the role of the TSRM in this field.

  • APPARECCHIATURE E TECNICHE DELL'APPARATO RESPIRATORIO

    After the scheduled lessons in the module, the student should know the principles to perform correctly main chest imaging modalities.


Detailed Course Content

  • Conventional Radiography and ultrasound
