T2 Electives - Department of Radiology

Not Offered for 2007-08

Introduction to diagnostic radiology is a survey course offering the student an introduction to the specialty of radiology and its significance in the diagnosis and management of disease. The course is not intended to make students competent in film interpretation, but rather to give an overview of the field and its application in medical practice. The course consists of didactic lectures covering general diagnostic, as well as the subspecialty areas of pediatric radiology, C.T., ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and magnetic resonance imaging. Students are allowed to witness film interpretation sessions and observe radiographic procedures. Each lecture is complimented by one hour of programed x-ray teaching files.  Students may take a written examination at the end of the course.
