Introduction
The course provides a systematic introduction to the fundamentals of X-ray images. The course is divided into three main parts. The first part focuses on advance anatomy and pathology in light of diagnostic imaging. The second part gives students an in-depth introduction to diagnostic imaging and projection theory. The third part deals with the technology of conventional X-ray equipment from the point of view of post-processing, optimisation and exposure technique.

Learning outcomes
After completing the course, the student should have the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:
Knowledge
The student
- can account for and assess different theories and procedures in conventional radiography
- can critically assess the representation of relevant anatomy and pathology in the imaging material
- can account for relevant additional projections for special examinations and consider whether these are relevant
- can critically assess quality and patient safety in the health service
- can critically assess procedures adapted to different groups of patients, for example in geriatrics and paediatrics
- can assess causal connections between post-processing algorithms, radiation doses and image quality
Skills
The student
- can assess image criteria and image quality independently
- can apply post-processing algorithms independently
- can apply methods for quality development work, including patient safety
- can assess different methods of diagnosis in the field of medical diagnostic imaging
- can evaluate their own practice
General competence
The student
- can convey and discuss issues in the field with colleagues, for example radiographers, radiologists, physicists, clinicians and others with whom it is natural to cooperate
- can make ethically and professionally justified assessments and decisions in professional practice
- can formulate, analyse and assess practical and subject-related issues in an independent, systematic and critical manner and on the basis of science
- can identify and assess their own need for competence development and specialisation
- can serve as a resource and driver in development work in the workplace
- can lead optimisation projects and make professional decisions based on systematically obtained research and experience-based knowledge
- can work to safeguard the universal right to equitable health services by focusing on quality and the development of procedures
- can contribute to phasing out and implementing methods, technology and sustainable innovation intended to improve the quality of services
