Radiography Taster Sessions
The Student Recruitment team are delighted to be able to offer schools and colleges personalised events that suit your needs for Diagnostic Radiography and Radiotherapy and Oncology.
Heads, shoulders, knees and toes: We see right through you!
From skeleton puzzles to smashing carrots, what doesn’t this session include?! Diagnostic radiographers must have an in-depth knowledge of anatomy. By utilising different materials, we can demonstrate the radiographic appearances of fractures with different mechanisms of injury. During this session, students will gain an introduction into the everyday life of a diagnostic radiographer, including the equipment used and the variety of career options available.
How technology and science target cancer
In this session, students will explore the technology and physics that are used to treat cancer. They will work in groups to consider how X-rays are needed to see tumours in different areas of the body. Once they have identified the tumour, they will learn how X-rays are used to deliver targeted cancer treatment (radiotherapy).
