Imaging is core in the assessment of many acute presentations. Radiology’s role is vital in discerning aetiology and recommending onward management. Having a strong grasp of the types of studies and abnormalities encountered in the emergency setting is imperative to ensuring patient safety.
Designed for junior or returning radiologists and other clinicians interpreting time-critical advanced imaging, our Emergency Radiology package was developed in collaboration with the London School of Clinical Radiology. The package comprises X-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI cases with detailed explanations variously covering acute abdominal, neurological, spinal, paediatric, thoracic, vascular and trauma imaging to prepare you for emergency radiology reporting.
Key objectives:
- Learn how to approach key imaging studies used in radiology emergencies.
- Identify and describe critical pathologies affecting multiple body systems.
- Gain exposure to both common and infrequent abnormalities, from clear cases with complications to subtle findings requiring careful review.
This package includes the following modules:
-
