About the Live Webinar

The focus of this Live Webinar is on Positioning Errors; the webinar will cover:

General Radiography Positioning Errors and their affect on the radiologist’s interpretations
– Understand what is considered a gold standard for various images in general radiography
– List the various purposes for reflective practice and continuous image quality improvement
– Knowledge of what is required of both the technologist and the patient to obtain a diagnostic image
– Understand common positioning errors for various views in general radiography
– Describe different positioning methods to reduce the need for repeat radiographs or alternative imaging
– Distinguish between anatomically aligned radiographs and poorly positioned radiographs
– Recognize the way positioning errors may lead the radiologists to a more difficult interpretation

Short Biographies

  • Dr. Rob Mason, Radiologist, BA.Sc., P. Eng., M.D., F.R.C.P.: Robert holds a B.A.Sc. (Chemical Engineering) as well as an M.D., both from the University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.  Following medical school, he completed a residency in Radiology at the University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 1997, and completed a fellowship in Interventional Radiology at the University Health Network, Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 1998.  Since then, he has worked as a community Interventional Radiologist at the Royal Victoria Health Science Centre, Barrie, Ontario, Canada.  Robert is skilled at all modalities of Radiology, has held numerous administrative roles at his hospital, and is an assessor for the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario.

 

  • Meghan Van den Oetelaar, MRT(R), RTR, CTIC : Meghan Van den Oetelaar graduated with honours from her Advanced Diploma in Medical Radiation Technology through Fanshawe College. During her training at University Hospital in London, she realized her passion for teaching while mentoring new students in the hospital. This spiked her commitment to enhance her knowledge through continuing education and share information with others throughout her career. She currently works at Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre, specializing in Computed Tomography while also working in General Radiography, Fluoroscopy and the Operating Room. She provides lessons in Computed Tomography for the students in order to better prepare them for their clinical experience and enrich their knowledge. Meghan strongly believes in the importance of continuous professional development and has paired with VCA education to be able to assist in this with other Medical Radiation Technologist’s.
