Introduction to Medical Imaging

This learning provides a comprehensive introduction to clinical imaging, helping you develop the skills needed to interpret radiological images accurately and confidently. It covers essential anatomy, pathology, imaging technologies and the principles that underpin safe, effective diagnostic practice across a wide range of clinical settings. You’ll explore everything from plain film x‑ray interpretation to cross‑sectional imaging, including CT, MRI, ultrasound and Doppler scanning, along with modules on paediatric imaging, forensic radiography, musculoskeletal imaging and more.

Developed in the UK by the College of Radiographers and NHS England’s elearning for healthcare programme, this course reflects high standards of radiographic practice and clinical imaging provision. Highly interactive sessions, real patient cases, animations and quizzes help you build strong interpretation skills and expand your understanding of both normal variants and complex pathologies.

After completing this course, you should be able to:

  • Describe the fundamentals of diagnostic imaging and how different modalities are used
  • Identify normal anatomy and distinguish anomalies, fractures, suspected injuries and a wide range of pathologies across appendicular and axial skeleton systems
  • Interpret CT, MRI, ultrasound and Doppler clinical images confidently
  • Recognise key imaging appearances across MSK, gastro‑intestinal, genito‑urinary, obstetric, gynaecological and paediatric imaging
  • Understand mechanisms of injury, including ballistic and gunshot trauma, and apply the principles of forensic radiography
  • Apply safe imaging protocols, professional standards and governance responsibilities in clinical practice

You can also:

  • Strengthen your communication and interpretation skills using real clinical data
  • Build confidence in evaluating subtle normal variants, non‑accidental injury indicators and complex radiographic appearances
  • Support your clinical development with formally endorsed CPD content

Course features

  • A comprehensive radiographic and clinical imaging programme covering anatomy, pathology, technology and interpretation across multiple modalities.
  • Highly interactive content featuring real clinical images, videos, animations and questions that help develop confident interpretation skills.
  • Practical, case‑based and scenario‑based learning suitable for radiographers, ultrasonographers and other imaging professionals around the world.

Course content overview

This programme‑level learning focuses on real‑world clinical image interpretation and the essential knowledge needed for safe diagnostic decision‑making. You’ll explore anatomy, pathology and imaging technique across x‑ray, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound and nuclear imaging modalities. Sessions cover clinical governance, patient care, consent, communication and the professional responsibilities involved in imaging practice.

Advanced modules explore neuroradiology, cardiac imaging, molecular imaging, vertebral assessment, fracture detection and mechanisms of injury. Forensic radiography content covers coroner‑related imaging, ballistics, bullets, gunshot wounds, trauma mechanism assessment and non‑accidental injury indicators.

Subject areas covered:
Anatomy, pathology, musculoskeletal imaging, fracture interpretation, cross‑sectional imaging, CT scanning, MRI resonance imaging, ultrasound and Doppler, obstetric and gynaecological imaging, paediatric imaging, forensic radiography, molecular imaging, normal variants, GI and GU imaging, cardiac imaging, vertebral assessment, quality improvement and clinical governance.

What’s included:
Highly interactive sessions with images, animations, videos, self‑assessment questions and real case material, arranged into short modules to support flexible, blended learning.

ASMIRT is very pleased to be providing eIntegrity's world-class elearning 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 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.
