This series of nine online modules is designed for new and seasoned health care professionals who want to improve their clinical competence. Written by radiologists and a registered radiologist assistant, this series uses high-quality CT and MR images to explore the location and function of major anatomical structures in the human body. Format: online modules.
Discover the evolution of diagnostic medical imaging equipment and expand your knowledge of the advantages, disadvantages and potential future uses for each modality when it comes to 2-D, 3-D and even 4-D images. Learn to differentiate between planes of the body, name external landmarks and major body cavities, list organs and systems, and describe joint classifications.
Locate landmarks of the cranium, paranasal sinuses, skull foramina and bones in the cranium and face while you explore components of the temporomandibular joint. This module, which includes 3-D animations of the skull and high-quality MR and CT images, will help you to describe the structure and function of the ear, facial muscles and components of the eye.
Explore the surface anatomy of the brain, its ventricular system and arterial blood supply. This module, which illustrates cerebrospinal fluid and blood flow in the brain, will help you identify major venous sinuses, the cerebellum and lobes of the cerebrum. It also will expand your knowledge of the limbic system, the basal ganglia, brain stem structures and cranial nerves.
Focus on the components of the spine and the cervical, lumbar and thoracic vertebrae. Identify major curves in the vertebral column, major ligaments in the spinal column, muscle groups associated with the spine, and the spinal cord.
Discover the features of the pharynx, esophagus, trachea and other structures of the neck. This module, which includes a video that demonstrates swallowing, helps you compare the relationships of the salivary glands and recognize muscles, lymph nodes, arteries, and veins in the neck.
Identify surface landmarks, planes, skeletal components and major muscles of the chest. This module — which features a cardiac ultrasound video and an animation illustrating how muscles and organs move during breathing — will help you describe the mediastinum, pleural cavities, heart, airway structures and the pulmonary circulation system. The module also covers major arteries and veins in the thorax.
Identify anatomical surface landmarks and regions of the abdomen. This module will also help you identify and describe the function of major muscles of the abdomen, lobes of the liver, stomach, gallbladder and biliary system, pancreas, spleen, adrenal glands and kidneys. It also focuses on the significance of the peritoneal and retroperitoneal spaces and teaches you to identify anatomical structures on CT and MR images in the axial, coronal and sagittal imaging planes.
Describe bones, muscles, organs, and vascular and lymphatic systems in the pelvis. This module will help you track the flow of urine, describe male and female reproductive systems and follow the course of arterial and venous blood flow within the pelvis.
Identify bones, muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons of the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle and explore the advantages and disadvantages of specific modalities used to image joints.

This series covers the development of MR imaging, how the equipment and instrumentation works and how to improve image quality. Modules in this series explain the importance of parameters, the functionality of radiofrequency systems and gradient systems in MR imaging. You will also learn about specific applications of MR imaging such as neuroimaging and joint imaging. The MR Pathology modules will improve your recognition and understanding of specific pathology in MR.
