RAD-2950 Cross Sectional Anatomy

Credits 3
This course is a comprehensive review of all anatomical body systems in cross section as it relates to sectional imaging modalities such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Course content includes a review of anatomical landmarks, a comparison of normal versus abnormal anatomy, and pathological processes.
Course Outcomes

Interpret anatomical structures on cross sectional images in the trans-axial, coronal, sagittal and oblique planes for all body systems.
Select anatomical landmarks used for positioning, centering, and determining scanning parameters for computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging examinations.
Differentiate the relationship of anatomical structures in cross section compared to plain film radiography.
Differentiate between normal and abnormal anatomy including anatomical variations caused by pathologies.
