STUDY

This module provides an introduction to diagnostic radiography including anatomy, physiology, pathology and imaging of the skeletal system, respiratory system, and regions of abdomen. You will also learn about working in the NHS, complete your mandatory training and e-learning for health training. Essential introductory physics will be covered including the IR(ME)R (2017) regulations.

This module will cover the rest of the physics content, cross-sectional imaging – with an emphasis on CT, and to include MRI and US.  Anatomy, physiology, pathology and imaging of the remaining body systems will be covered in this module.

This module will cover trauma imaging, imaging in the operating theatre, mobile imaging, service user needs, and working in a multidisciplinary team.

This is your first practice placement module which runs for the whole of the first year and encompasses assessment of competency in practice.

This module explores a range of professional issues and the wider implications of current government initiatives and policies and critically reflects on the NHS constitution, principles and values.  Aspects and experience of role transition will also be discussed, underpinned by recent research and input from alumni.   

You will be introduced to the principles of leadership, teaching and learning and supporting and developing others. The roles of supervision and mentoring learners in the practice environment will also be scrutinized, alongside the evolving roles of the diagnostic radiographer.

20 credits

This module will start with a recap on research methods alongside a formative research proposal. The project will take the form of a service evaluation or audit which will be practice led.

40 credits

This module includes current issues – enhanced, advanced and consultant practice. Initial radiographer commenting and reporting is also a part of this module.
