You will address dose reference levels and their usefulness for Radiodiagnostics with TECH, the world's best digital university according to Forbes”

Numerous tests involving the use of X-rays are performed around the world every year. However, the radiological risks associated with these health examinations are little known and often minimized by the general population and even by medical personnel. Nevertheless, the authorities that regulate the use of this technology continually issue strict regulations that allow greater control of resources and prevent the development of unnecessary or careless practices. Keeping abreast of updates to these protocols is essential for those who work in hospitals, especially nurses. These professionals face daily challenges such as patient management or radiobiological safety monitoring that require mastering the most contemporary guidelines in this field.  

However, in order to keep up to date, nursing staff will encounter serious obstacles, including the scarcity of teaching materials based on the latest scientific evidence and the difficulty of combining their studies with their work obligations.  For this reason, TECH has designed a program of studies that will put an end to these problems through its very complete syllabus. This curriculum will analyze the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of equipment such as CT or Fluoroscopy equipment.  Also, it will delve into aspects related to the implements and clinical conditions necessary for the adequate generation of X-rays.  

On the other hand, the university program will be taught in a 100% online modality. This will make it possible for nurses to combine their studies with the rest of their daily duties.  In addition, they will only need a device with Internet access to access the Virtual Campus and have access to high quality contents. They will also find in this digital environment a library full of multimedia resources, such as infographics or interactive summaries, which will strengthen their skills in a dynamic way.
