This
year is not semesterised. RAD4060 (Clinical studies 7) provides students
with an extended period of time spent gaining clinical experience in general
radiography, paediatric radiography, trauma imaging, mobile and theatre
radiography, fluoroscopic imaging and computed tomography. The subject RAD4010
(Medical imaging and methods 3 [MRI]), covers the technological and
physical principles underpinning magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the
positioning and processing requirements for MRI studies of the head and neck,
abdomen and joints and the associated cross-sectional imaging anatomy and
pathology. RAD4020 extends the study of sonography into gynaecological
examinations and examinations of the testes. Relevant clinical practice in MRI,
obstetric, gynaecological and testicular sonography is undertaken in RAD4050
(Advanced clinical studies). The subject RAD4030 (Research in medical imaging)
will extend the knowledge and understanding of scientific research
methodologies and research in radiography and medical imaging developed in
RAD1041 (Professional skills 1) and RAD1092 (Professional
skills 2).
Students will also undertake an elective that will extend their knowledge and
research skills in an aspect of radiography and medical imaging of particular
interest to the student.
