Learning outcomes
|
The aim is to acquire knowledge of the basic technological processes, physical and geometric principles and anatomy required for making a conventional radiogram.
Students will learn to use all imaging parameters determining the quality of the diagnostic display and the radiation load of the patient to ensure adequate quality of radiological information for diagnostic purposes at a minimum dose of radiation to the patient and medical personnel. They will learn how to position the patient and place the source of ionizing radiation so that the resulting display is optimal and corresponds to the specified requirements, the patient's state of health and the imaging technology used. Students will learn to evaluate the quality of the radiogram made, modify specific imaging conditions due to the technical possibilities of imaging technology and the patient's condition during rational reduction of radiation load.
