With this 100% online Postgraduate diploma, you will master the most innovative Ultrasound techniques to identify damage to internal organs and provide relevant evidence to clarify the causes of death"

One of the main challenges for Forensic Radiology specialists lies in the anatomical complexity of the maxillofacial region. Although imaging techniques have advanced considerably thanks to technologies such as Computed Tomography, there are still technical limitations in the detection of specific lesions. For example, maxillofacial trauma may involve dense bone fractures or soft tissue injuries that can be difficult to appreciate. Given this reality, clinicians have a responsibility to deepen their understanding of both oral physiology. Only then will they be able to recognize both normal features and anatomical variants and obtain transcendental findings through radiological imaging.

To contribute to this task, TECH has developed an exclusive Postgraduate Diploma in Forensic Radiology in Human Identification.

Designed by references in this field, the syllabus will analyze in depth the use of more sophisticated radiodiagnostic tools (including MRI, Virtopsias or Ultrasound). In turn, graduates will gain advanced practical skills to detect anatomical particularities relevant to the identification of individuals, such as diseases, traumas or anomalies. In this regard, the specialization will provide the keys to establish the age of individuals based on the ossification of cartilage. The academic materials will also delve into the Stages of Bone Repair, so that experts can determine the time elapsed from injury to death. 

On the other hand, this program is taught in a 100% online mode, allowing the specialists to enter the program comfortably. In this way, the only thing they will need to update their knowledge is a device with Internet access (using their cell phone, computer or tablet). The program also offers the most avant-garde methodology on the market today: Relearning. This teaching system is based on the reiteration of the most important contents to guarantee a natural learning process that will last in the memory of the graduates. 

You will be able to determine the ages of individuals from details such as the closure of bony epiphyses and cranial sutures"
