Course overview
This interactive course is designed to take you through a robust way of tackling the head CT scan which you can immediately apply in your clinical work. We will cover the essential anatomy to interpret the images, but any prior reading will augment your learning.
The focus of the teaching is to go through a large volume of scans and build your knowledge bank of normal and the various acute pathologies. We will teach the various ways of distinguishing the different types of abnormalities in a methodical way which can often mimic other pathologies.

This generic training course delivered by a highly experienced team will aim to equip radiographers with a complete understanding of both theoretical and practical aspects of the acquisition of Cardiac CT. This training will be delivered to candidates through a series of lectures, small group seminars and practical sessions. The overall outcome will be to provide candidates, with little to no experience, with the knowledge base and practical skills to competently perform Cardiac CT. Cost: £600 including seminars, practical learning and a copy of the ‘Oxford Specialist Handbook in Cardiology Cardiovascular Computed Tomography.’ For further information including a course programme please use the included contact details.

Come and join us for an update on an important topic - MRI Safety. Our star speaker Dr Frank Shellock will be presenting an MR safety based webinair followed by a live Q & A session. But that's not all, we also have some excellent speakers from the world of MR including Denise Newsom on signing off implants, the BAMRR safety contact Cath Mills on new implants as well as talks about SAR, MR safety expert development, neuro stimulators and gadolinium retention. All this for only £50 and we even provide lunch!

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.
