Packed full of high-quality x-rays of both normal and abnormal appearances, it provides an excellent training resource for: Radiographers Orthopedic and emergency medicine nurses Orthopedic and emergency medicine doctors Radiology specialists Physiotherapists Diagnoster is composed of a series of short packets of images, with each packet containing x-rays around the three main topics of Upper Limbs, Lower Limbs and Chest/Abdomen. The Shuffle button randomly generates a packet based on a selection of images from all parts of the body.Each packet offers the opportunity to test your knowledge of x-ray anatomy and pathology, and to identify whether an image has normal appearances or abnormal appearances. Each test is set with a 5-minute countdown timer, allowing you enough time to peruse each image and use the image manipulation controls (zoom, brightness, contrast, inverse) to further analyse each one.Upon completion of each packet, a results screen displays a percentage score along with specific feedback on each image. The history screen collects data on your most recent attempts in all four topics, enabling you to identify weak points for further study.
