Handbook

Students explore and become familiar with the imaging modalities of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound. Fundamental principles and clinical protocols / applications of MRI and ultrasound, and a range of non-ionising imaging modalities will be introduced. Students can expect to gain a working knowledge of the principles and application of MRI and ultrasound, facilitating increased understanding of appropriate modality choices to satisfy pathophysiological indicators. Students can expect to gain a general insight into the principles and applications of other non-ionising imaging approaches. This subject is not intended to prepare students as MRI imaging technologists or as professional sonographers, however, it will prepare students for further study in these modalities.
