The subject also extends the basic knowledge of digital image processing gained in second year. In RAD3031 students complete the axial skeleton and cover the anatomy and physiology of nervous tissue, the spinal cord and special senses including radiographic anatomy and pathology. The physical principles of ultrasound, instrumentation, the biological effects of ultrasound together with scanning methods for the abdominal organs are covered in RAD3021. Relevant clinical practice in CT and sonography of the abdominal viscera is undertaken in RAD3041.
In second semester, students extend their sonographic studies into the field of obstetrics and gynaecology. The subject RAD3052 also introduces students to ethics in ultrasound and the application of the law and legal procedures in hospital and medical settings. RAD3062 introduces students to mammography and extends the knowledge of dosimetry gained in first year into its application to medical imaging examinations. Students will study human embryology, genetics, the structure and function of the reproductive organs, and the endocrine system in RAD3072. Clinical practice in obstetric sonography and mammography will occur in RAD3082
