The Chest X-ray Survival Course - for Doctors

about the course

The CXR is the most frequently requested imaging investigation in hospital medicine. Despite this, many doctors lack the necessary skills and confidence in interpreting CXRs.

Whatever your experience, if you are involved in the care of patients, whether as a FY1, FY2 or Specialist trainee, this one day course will help you with CXR interpretation.

Using a tried and tested course format developed on our other courses we will help you to master the essential skills of CXR interpretation. The course concentrates on understanding the basic principles of film interpretation. The course format is a combination of lectures, interactive tutorials and the opportunity for you to try out your skills on sets of films viewed on digital equipment with 19" monitors.

Note: 7 Category One CPD CREDITS have been awarded by The Royal College of Radiologists to all CPD participants who attend this course.
