Learning Outcomes

At the end of this course, the students;

  1. 1) Distinguishes modern radiological imaging modalities (CT, MRI, ultrasound, mammography, angiography, etc.) and compares their technical features.
  2. Explains the technical differences between computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR) systems, operates the devices appropriately, and ensures the imaging of relevant anatomical structures.
  3. Describes the hardware components of magnetic resonance and computed tomography devices, applies advanced imaging techniques, and ensures the visualization of target structures.
  4. Explains the working principles of ultrasonography, digital mammography, and angiography (DSA) systems, adjusts device settings, and ensures the imaging of related tissues and organs.
