Develop their skills in techniques like general radiography, computed tomography (CT), digital vascular imaging and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). They will learn in world-class medical imaging labs, which have the capabilities of real medical imaging clinics with functional image intensifiers, x-ray and ultrasound machines.
Throughout the course students will explore important professionalism, communication, ethical and legal aspects of healthcare. Clinical placements start in the first year and are based in metro, rural and regional settings. They will gain valuable clinical practice in clinical centres and hospitals, and in Deakin University’s medical imaging training unit, giving them diverse experience and skills that ensure they graduate confident and career-ready. Graduates will be eligible for registration as a Medical Radiation Practitioner (diagnostic radiographer).
