This is a wonderful course as it covers the basics of what any pediatrician would look out for in a chest or abdominal x-ray, the films used in illustration and really clear and easy to understand.
Many thanks to the facilitator as she took time to simplify these concepts in a way that they can be easily grasped.
Even though the scope is wide, it was presented like nuggets which can serve as a platform for for study and delivered in a captivating way to keep the audience interested and attentive.
It may also be helpful to provide a document perhaps in pdf to help consolidate the information shared in the course because it may take some to gain a better handle of this.
All on all, great course, great delivery, great learning experience. Thanks!
