Contrast and compare CT and MRI in brain imaging
Indicate conditions suitable for advanced imaging
Use advanced imaging to justify treatment and referral
Develop and consistently use a complete search pattern for abdominal radiographs.
Link the history and physical examination findings with the radiological abnormalities to arrive at a reasonable diagnosis or differential diagnosis.
Identify the various soft tissue calcifications within the abdomen and state their clinical relevance.
Know the indications for referral based on abnormal abdominal radiographic findings.

Identify normal/abnormal anatomical soft tissue structures i.e.: vascular calcifications like abdominal aortic aneurysm, mesenteric lymph nodes etc
Recognize the importance of specific laboratory and diagnostic studies to aid in the differential diagnosis of common radiographic findings to rule out most often seen musculoskeletal disorders of the lumbar, lumbosacral spine and sacroiliac joints

Evaluate the various ways Ewing sarcoma presents on x-ray.
Differentiate ganglioneuroma from other neurogenic tumors.
