Shantou University via XuetangX

Overview

Learn the fundamentals and advanced concepts of medical imaging through a comprehensive course covering five major anatomical systems. Master the interpretation of various imaging modalities including X-rays, ultrasound, and diagnostic imaging techniques across respiratory, cardiovascular, central nervous, digestive, and musculoskeletal systems. Develop skills in analyzing chest X-rays, cardiac contours, pulmonary patterns, and various pathological conditions including heart diseases, aortic conditions, and lung cancer. Explore neurological imaging with focus on intracranial hemorrhage, stroke, tumors, and vascular malformations. Study gastrointestinal and hepatic imaging, including ultrasound techniques for normal and abnormal liver conditions. Examine musculoskeletal imaging with emphasis on fractures, dislocations, and bone tumors. Gain practical knowledge from experienced instructors Dr. LIN Yan, Dr. QIU Shunmin, Dr. ZHENG Hongyi, Dr. HUANG Ruibin, and Dr. MA Jiejia through detailed lectures and systematic approaches to medical image interpretation.
