Through this program, supported by Relearning, you will determine the severity of injuries by analyzing radiological images and make findings useful for judicial investigations"

While Industry 4.0 has had a positive impact in the forensic context, doctors are currently still facing challenges related to technological tools such as Ultrasounds. Added to this is the complexity of interpreting images accurately, bearing in mind the destructive nature of trauma caused by firearms and explosives. In view of this, it is vital that specialists have a vast knowledge of both normal and pathological anatomy, as well as of the effects of physical damage in order to properly interpret the snapshots and establish the causes of the injuries. It is also relevant that they know the structure of the explosive elements in order to subsequently establish the extent of the injuries.

In this context, TECH is developing a revolutionary program in Radiology of Firearms and Explosives Trauma in Forensic Investigation. The syllabus will analyze issues ranging from firearm projectiles to the characterization of the trauma they produce. At the same time, the syllabus will delve into the use of the most innovative radiological techniques, among which Computed Axial Tomography stands out. Thanks to this, graduates will obtain precise images that will facilitate their interpretation of lacerations, contusions or traumas. In addition, the didactic contents will focus on explosive injuries, paying attention to the different explosive charges and the radiological assessment of wounds.  During the specialization, experts will enhance their competencies to perform forensic assessments with objectivity.

Thanks to the fact that the program is taught entirely in an online format, practitioners will have the flexibility to adapt their learning process to their commitments. In this way, they will be able to customize their timetables, evaluation schedules and study pace. On the other hand, the pedagogical approach of the academic itinerary incorporates the application of Relearning, a teaching system of which TECH is a pioneer. This will guarantee graduates a solid and lasting understanding of the fundamental concepts.

TECH's online methodology will allow you to practice in simulated learning environments through case studies"

This university program will focus on the interpretation of radiological images in trauma caused by Firearms and Explosives. For this purpose, the academic itinerary will delve into both the operation and mechanics of the devices. Therefore, graduates will be able to analyze factors such as projectile trajectory, number of impacts and entry orifices. The syllabus will also delve into the use of state-of-the-art radiodiagnostic tools such as Ultrasound, Axial Tomography or Virtual Autopsy. In this sense, physicians will enhance their skills in the interpretation of images to distinguish between traumatic injuries and medical pathologies.

A syllabus that will provide you with the most innovative techniques to interpret the affection of the results of projectiles and explosives both at bone and soft tissue level”
