    It's a very interesting online course which gives the basic fundamental knowledge of Radiology. I have updated my skills on thyroid biopsy through this course as well as gained some knowledge on chest, abdominal CT scan and Radiographs. The chest Radiograph teaching on pneumothorax is also useful to me in emergency evaluation. Renal and colonic cancers are prevalent non communicable disease in the society today ,hence the benefit of this lecture. Such cancerous diseases if picked at early stage could help in patients management and prognosis., thus emphasising the need of understanding the Radiological features on CT scan.
    In general , I have benefited from the course and willing to undertake more courses

  • Ernst PASCAL
    Very clear for an introduction to radiology. However, the abdominal ultrasound could be more expandable to the bladder and also the bowels. Because, we also have intestines in the abdomen. Thyroid ultrasound should be teached also first before we learn how to do the biopsy of the thyroid. Anyhow, three stars given to this.course is well deserved. And i hope improvements are coming.
