From Savvas Andronikou, former head of WFPI outreach
I often find that doctors have to interpret the radiographs themselves. So I normally aim for:
Systematic interpretation of a chest radiograph in a child
Diagnosing pneumonia and TB [ these are the commonest indications for imaging and the commonest cause of morbidity and mortality]
Approach to abdominal radiographs in children
Diagnosis of high obstruction / low obstruction
Approach to imaging abdominal masses - i.e look if its hydronephrosis with US and work from there
Interpretation of trauma radiographs [cervical spine / common fractures]
A talk on radiation prevention in children's imaging [what not to image - e.g. sinuses]
I would spend some one-on-one time with the radiologist seeing where you could input most usefully: radiation and CT / pediatric fluroscopy procedures and limiting radiation / us techniques for children [e.g. head US]
You're also going to have to play it by ear
From Dorothy Bulas, head of WFPI education
Hands-on is so helpful
Go from top to bottom
Head US, neck US, chest US, abdomen, renal, bowel (AP/intus/PS) hips, spine gyn testicular
Then xr chest, abdomen
Fluoro ugi, obstruction intus
A little CT/ MR for path correlation
Case based is very helpful
It is a good review for pathology even if radiology knowledge is more limited
I would recommend breaking up the days to manage fatgigue.1 -2 hours in the morning then afternoon of lectures, then hands-on if possible.
