Description

This course covers patient interactions and management, skeletal anatomy, and fracture classification. A significant focus is placed on radiation physics, safety, and dose optimization across different modalities. Specific fracture imaging of the skull and spine is reviewed, alongside specialized exams and research.

Did you know?

The radiological appearance of a healing, non-displaced fracture lags behind the actual biological healing, meaning a bone can be functionally healing and clinically stable even before the fracture line "disappears" or significant callus is clearly visible on an X-ray.
