Introduction

Celebrating its 13th year, this online event embraces current developments in the field of Non-Accidental Injury/Suspected Physical Abuse imaging in step with guidance documents from the Society and College of Radiographers (including revised 2024 Forensic guidance) and the Royal College of Radiologists. Designed to meet the specific needs of Radiographers, the event aims to consolidate and extend the knowledge and skills required to act effectively as part of a multi-disciplinary team that are involved in such cases.

The event is delivered by a former paediatric superintendent radiographer, now experienced UWE senior lecturer alongside a team of local expert paediatric radiographers and clinical specialists in radiology and neuroradiology, in the form of live online lectures with the opportunity to consult the speaker post session.

This course is CPD endorsed by the College of Radiographers.

Student quote
