The three clinical modules of the course provide a thorough grounding in these essential areas of knowledge. Generic professional skills do not always receive sufficient focus in everyday radiology training. Furthermore, despite the rapid advances being made in imaging technology, the number of radiologists actively engaged in high quality research remains small. The three professional modules of the course develop skills in the key domains of research, leadership and teaching. The dissertation component of the MSc provides the opportunity to undertake a supervised, high quality piece of research in a chosen subspecialty area. Entry requirements: - Bachelor in a Biological/Physical Science, or Radiography or degree in Medicine or Dentistry. Program specification: The M Sc is designed not only for recent graduates preparing for a career in medical imaging, but also for professionals already working in the field who may attend on a part-time basis. It aims to cover all aspects of medical imaging, from the basic physics involved, in different modalities, image formation, pattern recognition and applications within the field of Radiology. By the end of this program students should be able to: - Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the physical and mathematical aspects of image formation of several techniques; - Identify the anatomical and physiological properties of tissue associated with image formation and contrast for several techniques; - Analyse and compare the technical performance of various modalities and understand the health and safety considerations; - Demonstrate an in-depth and advanced understanding of the clinical applications of each technique, the variables involved and how they can be compared; - Apply IT in literature searching, analysis and display of data, and report writing to enhance life-long learning in medical imaging; - Demonstrate enhancement of their professional skills in communication, problem-solving, learning effectively and quickly, and effective selfmanagement; - Critically evaluate relevant published work, demonstrating an understanding of the underpinning principles of statistics, project design and data analysis; - Carry our research directly or indirectly related to the discipline of Medical Imaging part of which includes the development of a research question/hypothesis, critical review, the choosing and application of an appropriate investigative method, presentation of results and finally a critical discussion of the findings with a conclusion. Assessment Achievement for the degree of Master (taught program) will be assessed by a variety of methods in accordance with the learning outcomes of the modules specified for the year/program and will involve the achievement of the students in: - evidencing an ability to conduct independent in-depth enquiry within the discipline via a Research Project; - demonstrating the ability to apply breadth and/or depth of knowledge to a complex specialist area via an unseen written exam; - drawing on a range of perspectives on an area of study via a Research Project; - evaluating and criticising received opinion via written essays and presentations; - making reasoned judgements whilst understanding the limitations on judgements made in the absence of complete data via written essays and presentations.
