About the Clinical Imaging programme

The Clinical Imaging e-learning programme (previously known as Image Interpretation) is being developed by the College of Radiographers, in collaboration with the Health Education England e-Learning for Healthcare programme.

Clinical Imaging is the ideal resource to support all imaging staff including assistant practitioners, students and early career radiographers and those interested and involved in research, reporting and advanced practice. It supports radiographers working in specialised modalities and provides knowledge on how to develop interpretation skills. As well as clinical content, there are sessions focused on patient care, including imaging patients with disabilities, dementia and specific needs along with topics such as consent, clinical governance and professional development.

Our Professional Officer for Education and the Clinical Lead for the e-learning programme, Dorothy Keane, provides an update on Clinicial Imaging below.
