Through this Postgraduate Diploma, based on Relearning, you will have a robust knowledge of traumatic bone injuries and the most sophisticated imaging techniques for their evaluation"

The analysis of firearm injuries constitutes one of the most important areas in the field of Forensic Radiology. Despite the benefits of technologies such as Computed Axial Tomography, the identification and study of explosive fragments remains a challenge for professionals. In this regard, nurses provide important logistical support during radiological procedures by being in charge of moving the mortal remains. In this way, they ensure that the images to be obtained are distinguished by both their accuracy and quality. The images help to ensure that details of bone and soft-tissue injuries are reflected in the snapshots to help determine the cause of death.

From this perspective, TECH is developing a pioneering Postgraduate Diploma in Forensic Radiology in Bone Trauma for nurses who wish to optimize their clinical practice and develop advanced skills for the care of people who have suffered such injuries. The academic itinerary will focus on the analysis of radiological techniques in both bone and dental fractures, thus examining the most commonly used elements of blunt injuries (including sharp-edged and firearms). The program will also provide graduates with the most innovative radiological techniques for the study of different injuries.  In this way, they will have an integral vision of the use of tools such as X-Rays, Magnetic Resonance Imaging or Computed Axial Tomography. Additionally, during the academic pathway they will acquire advanced interdisciplinary skills to foster a comprehensive assessment of bone trauma in forensic cases. 

Regarding the methodology of the university program, TECH is based on the innovative Relearningteaching system. Based on the natural repetition of fundamental ideas, this method will ensure that graduates enjoy effective and progressive learning. 

You will have numerous clinical case studies that will increase your technical skills in the management of human bodies with total amputation injuries"
