2 Day Intensive
A practical, campus-based introduction to digital radiology systems and imaging informatics.
About This Course
Understanding the Imaging Ecosystem
The imaging diagnostic pillar is often described as the imaging ‘ecosystem’—encompasses every element of the end‑to‑end diagnostics data journey. From ordering and image acquisition through to transmission, processing, storage, analysis, and reporting, each component plays a critical role in delivering safe, effective patient care.
2 Day Intensive: Digital Imaging in Practice
Designed for radiology and healthcare professionals, this 2 Day Intensive offers a clear and accessible introduction to the digital foundations of modern imaging. Delivered on campus at the University of Chichester, the course provides a practical, real‑world overview of how NHS imaging systems interconnect, how data is acquired, managed, and protected, and how emerging technologies are shaping the future of the field.
Practical, Relevant, Immediately Applicable
This is not theory for theory’s sake. The programme is structured to ensure immediate relevance to day‑to‑day practice—giving participants the confidence to better understand and engage with the systems they use every day, while developing insight into the broader digital imaging landscape.
Whether you are looking to strengthen your core knowledge, support service development, or prepare for future innovation, this course will equip you with the understanding needed to navigate the evolving world of imaging.
