Programme Objectives

To develop a comprehensive understanding of CT imaging protocols for various anatomical regions including the brain, chest, abdomen, pelvis, neck, and extremities.To prepare students for interpreting and optimizing image quality using advanced CT techniques and extremities To train students in the application of CT scanning parameters and protocols, including triple-phase, dual-phase studies, perfusion studies, and CT angiography.

Course Outcome

 

CO1: Understand the fundamental principles and functions of major imaging modalities, with a focus on CT protocols

CO2: To implement the technique in diagnosis of muscle and bone disorders, such as bone tumours and fractures.

CO3: Apply knowledge of imaging techniques effectively in clinical practice as competent radiologic technologists.

CO4: Analyze operational differences between various imaging protocols and determine their appropriate clinical applications.
