Trauma Radiography - Clinical Techniques is organized by Medical Technology Management Institute (MTMI) and will be held on Dec 08, 2018. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 8 hours of Category Continuing Education Credits.

Course Description:

Recognition of the pathological processes present in your images is key to ensuring a successful imaging exam for trauma radiography. This seminar will introduce the methods and techniques to overcome non-routine challenges in diagnostic radiology. A major focus will be the inter-relationship of the various imaging modalities and how they clinically complement each other with imaging trauma patients. Select radiographic positions will be discussed as to clinical expectations in order to maximize diagnostic yield in an ALARA fashion and to give the participant a radiologist’s perspective as to the challenges in image interpretation. The speaker will be utilizing a case-based approach in the delivery of these concepts.

Course Objectives are :

• Outline the critical parameters of acceptable images in non-routine settings.

• Suggest methods and techniques to overcome non-routine imaging challenges.

• Analyze medical images for essential information in non-routine situations.

• Discuss the role of SID and centering when imaging patients in trauma cases.

• Adapt to unique situations when radiographing patients in non-routine settings.

• Suggest modifications to routine positions to improve clinical utility in trauma and mobile radiography situations.

• Explain the concept of silhouette sign and its clinical applications.

• Discuss the role of fat as a radiographic density in radiographic image interpretation.

• Identify the five (5) basic radiographic densities on all radiographic images.

• Analyze acceptable image quality using clinical image identifiers and exposure index values.

• Appreciate your role as a medical imaging professional in producing optimal images and as a patient advocate.

• Discuss technological designs as they apply to imaging in trauma situations.
