About Study Course
Objective
Learning Outcomes
Knowledge
1.• To classify and briefly describe the normal anatomy of the musculoskeletal system and the most common anatomical variants. • To differentiate between, analyse and briefly describe the clinic, radiological findings (X-ray, USG, bone densitometry) and the basic principles of treatment of the most frequent pathologies of the musculoskeletal system. • To recognise, formulate and radiologically assess the significance of musculoskeletal CT scans, indications for i/v contrast administration, contraindications. • To recognise, formulate and briefly describe the significance of musculoskeletal MRI scans, indications for i/v contrast administration, contraindications.
Skills
1.• To recognise, characterise and evaluate normal and abnormal findings on radiographs of the musculoskeletal system (X-ray and USG, bone densitometry). • To distinguish between, interpret and explain the principles of musculoskeletal radiograph projections and the basic principles of their execution. • To demonstrate, explain and use the basic principles and findings of musculoskeletal USG. • To differentiate between, interpret and explain musculoskeletal CT protocols (including i/v contrast administration, arthrography) and their descriptions. • To recognise, describe and evaluate musculoskeletal MRI protocols (including i/v contrast administration, arthrography) and their descriptions.
Competences
1.• To evaluate, substantiate and justify musculoskeletal radiographs and their descriptions. • To plan, interpret and compare radiographic projections of the musculoskeletal system. • To plan, interpret and justify musculoskeletal USG examinations, findings and descriptions. • To plan, interpret and evaluate musculoskeletal CT protocols (including i/v contrast administration, arthrography) and their descriptions. • To evaluate, substantiate and justify musculoskeletal MRI protocols (including i/v contrast administration, arthrography) and their descriptions.
