This course takes a systematic approach to radiographic interpretation of the osseous elements of the human body when they are subjected to change under the influence of pathophysiologic processes. Radiographic observations will be intimately correlated with clinically relevant physical & biochemical findings. Categories of bone pathology discussed will include: infections, neoplasms, vascular, nutritional, metabolic & endocrine disorders.

 This course helps to prepare the student for the problems expected in clinical practice. The student will be able to deal with the common radiological problems and treat / refer patients as radiographically/clinically indicated.
