LEARNING OUTCOMES

On successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

  • move proficiently from body anatomy to sectional anatomy
  • recognize and produce the normal anatomy of the body at multiple levels
  • recognize and reproduce the normal anatomy of the body with different imaging methods

The aim of the subject is for the students to understand the 3-dimentional anatomy of the human body that is necessary in order to produce images of the human body using tomographic modalities.
Knowing in depth the sectional anatomy the prospective radiologic technologist will be able to recognize structures and produce through post processing the appropriate information.
The course presents the sectional anatomy in multiple levels and with several modalities (US, CT, MRI and NM). The student will be able to produce a section at any level and isolate a structure from different sections.
