Radiographic Pathology Demystified:
Enhancing Diagnostic Skills
An enlightening journey into the world of radiographic pathology with Dr Ashleigh Briody. In this engaging two-hour session, we will unravel the complexities of radiographic images and empower you with the knowledge and confidence to interpret them effectively. Most radiographic pathologic lesions can be categorized into distinct categories and Dr Briody will guide you through these, providing you with a systematic approach to understanding radiographic findings. After a comprehensive review of radiographic findings and their implications, you will have the opportunity to put your newfound knowledge to the test. This interactive program is designed to boost your confidence in identifying pathology on a radiograph. By the end of this session, you'll feel more comfortable and capable of recognizing the radiographic features that distinguish benign from malignant lesions. You'll also have a clear understanding of when to refer cases for specialist evaluation and when to monitor lesions over time.
Upon completion of this session, attendees should be able to:
Categorize lesions appropriately in helping to establish a diagnosis.
Understand clinical features of bone lesions to determine when to order further imaging, when to biopsy, and when to refer.
Recognize radiographic features necessary to distinguish benign from malignant lesions.
