Teaching Methodologies
The teaching is tutored by teachers or professionals in exercise that collaborate with the ESTeSC in the degree of MedicalImaging and Radiotherapy. It is up to the holder of the CU definition of objectives and forms of evaluation of CU in coordinationwith employees of the service.
Students will be encouraged to apply the theoretical and technical-scientific knowledge acquired throughout the course, usingadequately the scientific terminology, on a simulated clinical environment. All incidences of routine for the study of limbs,thorax, spine, skull and face must be addressed in order to establish technical-scientific attitudes that will be developed in realcontext in CU Clinical Placement I and II. Students will be evaluated by practical tests.
Learning Results
The student must acquire knowledge about:
• The General Radiology equipment manipulation practice
• The methodologies related to plain radiography
• The completion of a more correct procedure according to clinical information
The student must acquire skills:
• Act according to the recommendations from the patient preparation until the end of the procedure.
• Understand the purpose and specificity of each procedure and the selection of the exposure parameters The student mustacquire competences of:
• Good conduct in relation to the patient according to assumptions of professional ethics
• Perform radiographies, fulfilling positioning criteria, inclusion and quality
• Evaluate its procedures with critical spirit and compares them with the described in recommendations
• Use good practices of Radiological Protection
Program
In clinical context, under the direct supervision of a advisor, students will be encouraged to simulate peer attitudes andprocedures.
Plain radiographies of the limbs, thorax, spine, skull and face complying with the following assumptions:
• Apply radiological protection standards in relation to the patient and yourself
• Identify the data in the registration and verification system
• Identify the most appropriate procedures according to clinical information • Use equipment and other specific materials
• Position and select display parameters
• Perform with skill and accuracy all procedures
• Ensure quality and Radiological Protection
