SUMMARY:Family and Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) Course for Radiographers
DESCRIPTION:TASTER SESSION LIVE NOW!\nWho\nDr Bharti Khurana is an Associate Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School and an Emergency Radiologist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital\, USA. She is the Founder and Director of the Trauma Imaging Research and Innovation Center (TIRIC) and an NIH-funded physician-scientist specialising in trauma imaging\, family and intimate partner violence\, and the application of machine-learning tools to support early recognition of injury patterns. \nDr Khurana’s clinical and research expertise aligns directly with the recently updated MRPBA Professional Capabilities\, which now emphasise the responsibility of Medical Radiation Practitioners to recognise\, respond to\, and act on suspected family\, domestic\, and sexual violence. Her work focuses on accurate image interpretation\, medicolegal documentation\, and the critical role radiographers play in identifying non-accidental injury within emergency and acute care settings. \nThe ANZ branch of the International Association of Forensic Radiographers (IAFR) are honoured to have Dr Khurana assist in developing modules for a new course which includes Intimate Partner Violence and Safeguarding of Adults. This course is designed to support MRPs in meeting contemporary professional\, ethical\, and regulatory expectations through practical\, evidence-based learning led by an internationally recognised expert in forensic and trauma imaging. This course will supplement the IAFR’s existing course and practical workshop on the Radiological Investigation of Suspected Physical Abuse of Children (SPA/NAI). \nModule 1: Role of Radiology\nThis first module will introduce the learner to the core concepts of intimate partner violence (IPV)\, emphasising its widespread prevalence across all socioeconomic\, educational\, racial\, and cultural backgrounds. Learners will learn how radiology can play a pivotal role in detection by identifying injury patterns that are disproportionately associated with IPV. These include characteristic fracture types\, facial and extremity injuries\, old or healing fractures. The module will highlight how careful review of both current and prior imaging can uncover subtle but important clues that may otherwise go unnoticed. \nBy the end of this module\, the learner will understand the epidemiology of IPV\, the clinical and public health importance of early recognition\, and the unique opportunity radiologists and radiographers have to identify at-risk patients and help connect them with appropriate support services. \n  \nStay tuned via our Facebook Page!

SUMMARY:ANZ Branch Feb Webinar: Forensic Radiographers - Giving Evidence in Court
DESCRIPTION:ANZ Branch presents two webinars:\n\n\nRadiographers being a Witness in court by Michael Proudfoot\nDuring Michael’s career\, he has had to act multiple times as an expert witness for the NSW Police and/or the NSW Coroners Department and on two occasions act as the principal witness for the Plaintiff appearing before the Health Care Complaints Unit and the NSW Supreme Court. He wishes to share these experiences\, some of which were confronting\, to give you a better understanding of how the process works and what you may possibly encounter. The world of Forensic Radiography and Imaging in general can encompass many situations in which we may be called upon to participate in situations that may become confronting. This not only involves the imaging involved and how best to perform them\, the necessary documentation but also if we to appear before the regulatory body to act as either expert witnesses\, or a witness for the Plaintiff if we are present at an unforeseen event.\n\nSo you have been asked to be an Expert Witness- what to consider before you say yes!\nChristine is a senior practicing radiographer with a long history in lecturing\, CT scanning\, student supervision\, accreditation and fluoroscopy. She is currently employed as a senior radiographer at Royal Hobart Hospital in Tasmania\, Australia. Being asked to act as an expert witness means you are recognised as having specialised knowledge or expertise in your field. In this webinar\, Christine explores what this role truly involves—from reviewing records\, reports\, and documentation\, to applying best practice standards\, professional norms\, and evidence-based methodology. \nThis session will discuss: \n– What it means to be an expert witness\n– Time commitments and professional responsibilities\n– Reviewing documentation and requesting additional information\n– The possibility of court appearances and cross-examination\n– The professional challenges and rewards of expert witness work\nWhile the role can be time-consuming and demanding\, it is also intellectually engaging\, professionally rewarding\, and often a powerful learning experience that can influence and improve future practice.\n\nIAFR member: Free \nNon-member: $15 \nRegister now via Thinkific link: https://iafr-elearning.thinkific.com/courses/radiographer-expert-witness-25-february-2026
