  • MetodologiaMethodology
    The teaching methodology employed focuses on an expository and demonstrative approach to the course content. Student participation and a problem-solving approach based on clinical cases will be encouraged. Students may complete the course through continuous assessment or a final assessment. The course is modular, therefore students must obtain a minimum grade of 9.5 points in each module (Radiology and Nuclear Medicine), assessed on both the theoretical (50%) and practical (50%) components, each with a minimum grade of 9.5 points. Continuous assessment will consider classic assessment instruments: transversal parameters, tests, written assignments, and oral assessments. The final exam is written.
