The programme is delivered over a nine-month period on a part-time basis.
The overall aim of the module is to enable the student to develop a comprehensive knowledge of the physical principles and imaging processes underlying the production and appreciation of the CT, MR and PET radiographic image.
The programme has been designed to provide a coherent programme of education for radiographers to extend their professionalism and enhance their professional practice. Issues at the cutting edge of theory will enable students to focus, extend, develop and strengthen skills to a level of advanced professional competence.
The theoretical component of the module will be self-supported through independent academic study. During this study the student will have access to the entire range of Queen Margaret University electronic library facilities as well as guidance to access those provided by the respective UK Health Departments. Students will be encouraged to consider the implications of the skills they are learning in relation to current research, medico legal, ethical and governance issues.
