Have you encountered physics-related artifacts in your imaging studies while reporting? Please consider submitting cases and contributing to the International Certificate in Radiology Fundamentals (ICRF) initiatives.
The ICRF is an innovative, one-year online certificate program created by Radiology Across Borders (RAB) in collaboration with the University of British Columbia’s Radiology Global Outreach Program (RGOP). The course is tailored for clinicians, radiographers, and sonographers alike internationally by teaching the core principles of radiology to improve healthcare.
As part of the course design/delivery team, we are looking to build a teaching archive of real-world radiology artifacts for the physics module of the ICRF program. This module covers the fundamentals necessary to understand how medical imaging equipment operates, including key topics of radiation physics & properties, interaction with matter, different imaging modalities, and safety & protection.
Please consider submitting any ANONYMIZED CASES that:
* Clearly demonstrate a specific physics principle from any of the different imaging modalities
* Include representative images with brief clinical context
* Optional: highlight a clear teaching “take-home” point
Cases do not need to be rare or complex. Our emphasis is on clarity and educational value. Some examples: beam hardening artifact, motion artifact, metal artifact, ring artifact, partial volume artifact, and so on!
Please submit cases to the following link: https://forms.gle/ryyT6tJXMAcsno1d9
Thank you for your time and your contribution to our educational and humanitarian initiatives to improve healthcare internationally.
