Medical Imaging I

Learning Results

The student must acquire knowledge of:
•Radiological anatomy in general radiography and angiography procedures
•Normal radiological and pathological signs in accordance with the procedure and clinical context
The student must acquire skills for:
•Assess and identify the radiological procedure and diagnostic accessibility according to the clinical context of the
patient
•Manipulate radiography and angiography images with efficiently
•Identify changes between the images in routine and context and trauma
•Evaluate radiological signs in general radiology and intervention procedure
The student must acquire competences for:
•Identify and assess the anatomical structures and radiological signs present in radiography and intervention
procedures
•Evaluate the images produced, making decisions about their quality and acceptability in accordance with the
context and clinical conditions of the patient. Including the decision on the absence or presence of possible
disease or trauma.
