Diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy
(objectives)
The teaching of Diagnostic Imaging and Radiotherapy aims to make the student learn: ● the basic knowledge of physics and chemistry useful to understand the theoretical principles of radiological techniques used in general radiology and especially in oro-maxillo-facial diagnostics; ● the basic knowledge of Radioprotection; ● the knowledge of the modalities of formation, transmission and especially the effects of radiation absorption; ● the recognition of anatomical structures in normal and pathological conditions; ● the main indications for the use of diagnostic imaging methods in all the pathologies of the oro-maxillofacial district and in the main imaging modalities of the cerebral, thoracic and abdominal district; ● the specific aspects of local and systemic pathologies that may affect the oral-maxillofacial district.
