About this Program

Discussion of the Body - Through the use of case studies, participants will be able to describe the abdominal quadrants and regions, as well as identify anatomic structures of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis. Knowledge of post-processing and special procedures are vital for CT and MRI technologists working in the field, as these skills make them a valuable part of the healthcare team.

Discussion of the Head & Neck - Through the use of case studies, participants will be able to describe potential pathology of the cranium, facial bones, and brain, as well as identify anatomic structures of the soft-tissue neck. Knowledge of post-processing and special procedures are vital for CT and MRI technologists working in the field, as these skills make them a valuable part of the healthcare team.

Educational Objectives

At the conclusion of this webinar, attendees will be able to:

  • List the structures of the thorax, and the abdominal and pelvis cavities, as well as the structures of the head and neck
  • Describe the different pathological processes that can occur in the chest, abdomen, and pelvis, as well as the head, brain, and neck
