Over 300 radiography professionals receive on-site CPD learning

During October and November last year Fujifilm delivered CPD Now presentations accredited by the College of Radiographers to more than 300 radiology professionals across the UK.  Across six weeks the team visited 12 hospitals and ran 24 sessions, covering a total of 1,730 miles from Portsmouth to Inverness.

“We understand how difficult it can be for radiography staff to get time away from their hospital to complete CPD training, so we wanted to provide a service that was both practical and educational,” said general manager of Fujifilm Medical Systems UK Adrian Waller.

“We promote a culture of learning and continuous improvement, and this extends to our healthcare partners.  Providing CPD is linked to our passion for delivering the best customer service in the market.”

The CPD Now presentation entitled ‘Digital imaging’ covered the history of imaging from the origins of x-ray, through innovations in computed and digital radiography, to the new generation of digital technology and the advances that are being driven by AI and techniques such as anatomy recognition and Virtual Grid scatter removal.

Fujifilm is planning further #LearnWithFujifilm CPD Now sessions for 2019 and welcomes applications from hospitals that would be interested in taking part.
