Enhance your skills in interpreting radiological images
The Clinical Imaging programme equips you with the skills to interpret radiological images correctly. It is relevant to radiographers, ultrasonographers and other healthcare professionals across the world.
The programme has been developed in the UK by the College of Radiographers and Health Education England e-Learning for Healthcare.
A high-quality online radiography course
You can use the sessions to develop your skills in radiography, CT, MRI and ultrasound. There are also sessions on patient care, consent, clinical governance and professional development. The sessions are highly interactive, with images, video clips, animations and self-assessment questions to help embed learning and understanding.
Test your interpretation skills using real clinical data
You can view images from real medical cases and test your interpretation skills. This helps you to better understand the wide-ranging and complex appearances of both normal images and those showing pathology.
The learning content is available online so you can study anywhere, at any time.
Formally endorsed by the UK College of Radiographers
This interactive medical imaging course is formally endorsed for continuing professional development by the UK College of Radiographers (through the 'CPD Now' scheme). So, it meets the highest UK quality standards of a leading professional body.

Clinical Imaging - General Introduction: e-Learning Project
This session highlights the importance of principles of safe practice within clinical imaging and provides a general overview of the programme.
Clinical Imaging of the Adult Skeleton
General Anatomy and Biomechanics
This session describes bone structure and its radiographic appearance, the classification of bones and joints, the function of ligaments and tendons, basic principles of skeletal biomechanics, and how these relate to clinical imaging.
Clinical Imaging of the Adult Skeleton
Facial Bones: Session 1
This session looks at injuries related to the facial bones. It focuses on identifying anatomy demonstrated on both diagrams and X-rays, and it offers examples of radiographic technique. Mechanisms of injury are discussed to develop a knowledge base in clinical presentations.
Clinical Imaging – Cross-sectional Imaging:
Role of CT and MRI in Neurological Emergencies
This session looks at common neurological emergencies, why and how they are imaged.
Clinical Imaging – Breast Imaging:
Benign Masses
This session looks at benign lesions of the breast. It examines some of the clinical aspects and then focuses on the imaging characteristics of each lesion.
Clinical Imaging – Magnetic Resonance Imaging:
Knee (Session 1)
This session looks at the anatomy of the knee, which is illustrated using diagrams, magnetic resonance images and some arthroscopic images. Mechanisms of injury are discussed along with techniques for magnetic resonance imaging of the knee.
Testimonials
The project is a fantastic resource for radiographers' continuing professional development.
I really love what eIntegrity has to offer with its content across a wide variety of modalities and body areas. It is easy to access at home or from work. The information is presented really well and easy to follow. I like that I can also manipulate the images.
It has been a great way for me to improve my knowledge of, and identify, pathology and enable me to convey accurate findings to the referring doctor or radiologist. I feel that, with the help of eIntegrity I have been able to improve the quality of care that I can offer my patients.
I would highly recommend this to supplement your CPD.
ASMIRT is very pleased to be providing eIntegrity's world-class e-learning materials exclusively to our members as part of their member benefits.
The quality of these programmes is so good that they are provided free of charge to medical imaging and radiation staff throughout the UK by the National Health Service (NHS) and it is recognised as the gold standard for online CPD and learning. Members' engagement from previous discount offers was most encouraging, and they used the modules extensively. This prompted us to provide this online learning as an ongoing benefit to all our members – at no cost.
I have found eIntegrity to be very useful and hope that you will thoroughly enjoy this system.
I really enjoy the training package provided by eIntegrity, hence my gusto in re-enrolling. It has refreshed my memory on some aspects and provided lots of detail. One thing I have learned in my 30+ years in Radiography is that you never stop learning!
I accessed the eIntegrity proton therapy module to consolidate my knowledge on this advanced technology, with its imminent arrival in Australia. The modules were very insightful, providing a solid foundation of proton therapy fundamentals, through to more advanced learnings. I recommended this module to many of my peers as a great resource to enhance their understanding of proton therapy.
