Mangaluru, July 25, 2024 - RadWise, the Student Radiology Society, successfully
hosted its first workshop on 'Emergency Radiology' during the Silvercon
National Conference at Father Muller Medical College (FMMC), in collaboration
with Father Muller Research Centre. The workshop, attended by delegates from
various institutions, was mentored by Dr. Anston Vernon Braggs and Dr. Soujanya
Mynalli Braggs from the Department of Radiodiagnosis, FMMC.
The event kicked off at 1:45 pm with interactive sessions on CT, MRI, and
X-rays. Dr. Soujanya led an engaging session on interpreting X-rays in
emergency situations, while Dr. Anston focused on CT and MRI for stroke
detection. Delegates were divided into groups and rotated through four
stations, including a highlight session with the EFAST simulator for hands-on
experience.
Moderated by Ms. Shreya Sathish, the workshop included a game called 'Fight
Around and Find Out' and was well-received for its informative and interactive
approach. Postgraduates Dr. Darryl George and Dr. Vernica Chandra conducted
additional stations on identifying X-rays, CT, and MRI.
The event concluded with mementoes presented by Dr. Ram Shenoy Basti, HOD of
Radiodiagnosis, and Dr. H.B. Suresh. Positive feedback from attendees
highlighted the workshop's organization and educational value, with many expressing
a desire for more such sessions. RadWise expressed gratitude to the Department
