8.3. Radiology of the Sense Organs
1600-LekM4CNZRAD-J
During the lectures, the student learns the technical and physical aspects of imaging. Familiar with the construction of X-ray appara-tus, computer tomograph, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound apparatus. He learns the physical attitudes of radiography and its variants. He knows the contrast agents used in imaging diagnostics and indications and contraindications for their use. During the lectu-res will be presented information systems used in radiology and prin-ciples of evidence-based imaging (EBR). Lectures are aimed at pre-senting the principles of safety in imaging. Student learns how X-rays affect cells, tissues and the body. He learns the ALARA princi-ple. Is able to apply individual and general radiological protection techniques. Learns radiation doses in individual diagnostic tests. Understands the safety of magnetic resonance imaging and ultraso-und. In addition, lectures are devoted to the basic principles and techniques of radiological research in the field of sensory organs.
During the seminars, head and neck imaging are presented, with par-ticular emphasis on sensory organs. The student learns the x-ray ana-tomy of the sensory organs. The methodology of examining (x-ray, CT, MR, ultrasound) of sensory organs is presented. Seminars are also devoted to learning the indications and contraindications for the study of sensory organs. The student learns the radiological and pa-thological correlations during the diagnosis of sensory organs. He learns to recognize birth defects, inflammations, tumors and cancer-like lesions, trauma to sensory organs.
