Course Objectives:

This course will provide the participants with a review of radiographic interpretation. The focus will be on a back to basics approach to everyday problems and more complex cases. This will be provided through the use of lectures and film reading laboratories where the participants can put their skills to the test.

The topics that will be covered include radiographic technique, thoracic disease (cardiac, respiratory, and pleural), abdominal disease, juvenile bone disease and aggressive bone lesions (tumours and osteomyelitis).
