About this Seminar
Radiology has been developing dramatically during the past few
years. With enhancements in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and
computed tomography (CT), the role of the radiologic technologist
has also been changing.
Skills in cross-sectional anatomy are
important to help the technologist in MRI and CT to identify the
anatomy being imaged and to communicate effectively with the
radiologist and physicians.
This seminar is offered in your area to provide you with the
opportunity to expand your knowledge of body cross-sectional
anatomy and its appearance in CT and MRI images.
|
Educational Objectives
At the completion of this seminar, participants will be able to:
- Identify cross-sectional anatomy in the sagittal, coronal and axial planes on CT and MR images.
- Describe anatomical structural relationships.
- Recognize normal anatomy and build a personal resource system for future study.
- Locate and identify pertinent cerebral, upper thorax, midthorax, and abdominal anatomy.
- On CT and MR images, identify anatomical structures of the body and of the head.
- Distinguish between arterial and venous anatomy of the entire bodys vascular system.
- Classify the various sections of anatomical regions and their associated parts.

Who Should Attend
|
|
You should attend if you are a radiologic technologist
currently working in CT and MRI or are interested in learning
about these fields. Student technologists will also find this
an effective way to learn about or expand their knowledge of
body cross-sectional anatomy.
It would be appropriate
for other health care professionals interested in improving
their knowledge in this basic skill area.
