Reading Radiographs For Beginners
3 sessions of 18 hours
Most body therapists cringe a little when their client brings into them their set of x-rays and the radiologist’s report. In many cases you are not sure which way is up or down and what looks normal and what is not. The radiologist uses medical terms that you have never heard of and so all round you are at loss to know what you will say to the client. Despite the fact that this is a very specialised form of medical diagnosis I believe that body therpists should have a basic understanding of what it is all about. They will then be in a better position to know whether they can safely treat the client or whether they should refer tham on.
Parts A & B of this series of mini seminars will take some of the mystique away from imaging and place you in a more informed position in dealing with everyday cases that come into your clinic
PART A will show you:-
1 session - 6 hours
