Any technologist who has taken on the role of post processing knows limited educational resources are available. A few days of applications training does not provide all of the required knowledge necessary to create quality MIP, Curved Reformat and Volume Rendered images.
3DR Academy in partnership with Jefferson Community & Technical College offers the only college-based curriculum in Volumetric Medical Imaging. The mission of 3DR Academy is to give technologists the required knowledge and skills to produce diagnostic and clinically useful post processed images.
