Back by popular demand, we are once again running the highly regarded Torbay Hospital Image Interpretation Study Day. It is a multi-disciplinary day, also open to minor injury nurses and specialist physiotherapists covering the appendicular skeleton, divided into six areas.  A short lecture on each area is followed by a computer based exercise and a small group discussion with a radiologist or reporting radiographer, all in a relaxed and low pressure environment, and set in our superb education centre.
The course is fast paced, great fun and has always had brilliant feedback. Please get in touch for our information pack.
