Sectional Anatomy is the cornerstone of many medical imaging procedures. This course is designed in the interest of technologists who perform procedures and or view images in cross section and intended to familiarize the technologist with sectional anatomy and its current application in the field of medical imaging.
The location of organs, vasculature and musculature will be examined in a variety of imaging planes. Selected images from patient cases are provided to demonstrate a realistic perspective on the application of sectional anatomy in practice.
The course is built on a strong foundational knowledge of two dimensional human anatomy including knowledge of anatomical features of structures, their location within the body and with respect to other structures. This may require independent review depending on the technologist’s personal experience and background.
Although the course is presented using mainly CT images, students are encouraged to appreciate the multimodality aspect of sectional anatomy within medical imaging and will be introduced to: MRI, PET/CT and MR/CT hybrid applications and imaging.
Textbook: No textbook required, however students require access to the internet.
