Learning outcomes
The aim is to teach students how to use the basic technological procedures, physical and geometric principles and anatomical knowledge required for making a conventional radiogram. Students learn to use all the imaging parameters that determine the quality of a radiogram and the patient radiation dose to ensure adequate quality of radiological information for diagnostic purposes with a minimum radiation dose to the patient and health care personnel.
The student is familiar with the principles of digital imaging techniques and their practical use in health care.
