Emergency and critical care clinicians and radiologists must know the indications and practical usefulness of imaging techniques, and know how to interpret the information derived from them.

This knowledge will have an impact on each of the six fundamental domains of the current concept of quality of care: patient safety, effectiveness, efficiency, equity, opportunity and humanization.

  • Patient safety, by reducing diagnostic errors and time-to-treatment intervals, and errors in therapeutic procedures
  • Effectiveness and efficiency, by modifying very favorably the "success at first attempt" in diagnoses and interventions, optimizing the cost/benefit ratio in decision-making
  • Equity, as they can be applied equitably in a short period of time to all patients that need them
  • Timeliness, for its ability to provide "here and now" the right answers to the questions required for better patient care
  • Humanization, by facilitating the doctor and patient relationship with continuous care during travel to remote and unfamiliar places for the patient or during the intervention of specialists who are not usually involved in the patient's care

The program is designed to provide online education, equivalent to 18 ECTS credits and 450 hours of study. All theoretical and practical knowledge is presented through high quality multimedia content, analysis of clinical cases prepared by experts, master classes and video techniques that allow the exchange of knowledge and experience.

They also enable students to keep up to date, create action protocols and share the most important new developments in the field. With this online program, students can organize their time and pace of learning, adapting it to their schedules, in addition to being able to access the contents from any computer or mobile device.

This program will provide students with a sense of confidence in medical practice, which will help them grow personally and professionally”

Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Imaging in Pathology of the Central Nervous System, Head and Neck in Emergency and Critical Care

Since the anatomical sketches drawn by Leonardo Da Vinci in the 16th century, when he performed his dissections to study bone, muscle and visceral structures, the power of imaging has had great significance for medical work. Nowadays, X-rays, ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging are some of the tools available to the clinical staff to obtain a reliable image to evaluate the pathological deficiencies of the patient. The Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Imaging in Pathology of the Central Nervous System, Head and Neck in Emergency and Critical Care is a program designed by TECH Technological University that allows students to delve into the equipment and techniques used to diagnose by imaging: trauma, injuries and other abnormalities. The content covers, as a first instance, from conventional radiology to nuclear medicine, to later focus on the conditions of three areas: the brain and spinal cord, facial and ocular, and the neck. A very complete study to meet the needs of the market.

Specializing in acute pathology imaging

The quality of care in a clinic responds to two constants: the empathetic treatment received by the patient and the efficiency of its processes. The former is established at the time of the Hippocratic oath, the latter is developed by optimizing treatments. Regarding the latter, there is no better way to do it than to clearly and precisely get an image diagnosis right. Our program enables you to do just that. By means of graphic and multimedia diagrams, including real cases, we will provide you with the most fundamental skills to perform ultrasound scans, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and angiograms, with emphasis on the use of state-of-the-art technology in PET and SPECT equipment, gamma cameras and other radiological equipment. Do you wish to identify an epidural hematoma, an ischemic stroke, a thyroid tumor pathology or other emergencies requiring critical care? At TECH, we will help you achieve this with the highest standards and innovation in distance higher education.
