SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #21 - The Expert Witness in Court
DESCRIPTION:Steve Naidoo is a specialist forensic pathologist\, with over 30 years’ experience.  Special interests include applied forensic anatomy\, the pathology of trauma\, and sexual offences.  He worked with the Truth Commission in South Africa\, death investigations in Mozambique\, in the Former Yugoslavia (Bosnia\, Croatia and Kosovo)\, the 2012 Marikana Massacre\, East Africa\, and in The Gambia.  As Associate Professor in Forensic Medicine\, he was the first Chairman of the African Society of Forensic Medicine.  He has had much experience in giving testimony in court.  Steve does independent consulting and is currently involved in training in sexual abuse medicine. \n\nAbstract \nHealth professionals are frequently called upon to testify in a court.  We generally are\, however\, inexpert at what we should be expert upon\, and fare badly\, with dissatisfying experiences leading to the tendency to avoid the unpleasantness of court.  The talk will cover the anatomy and procedure of the courtroom and how the legal system operates\, the difference between a lay\, professional and expert witness\, the value of expert opinion\, how to give testimony in general and make complex scientific knowledge appreciated by the court and layman\, dos and the don’ts of testimony\, nature of cross-examination\, how to avoid the snares and the “scares”\, challenges to professional credibility\, how an expert is “qualified”\, and the differences between fact and opinion and between possibility and probability.  The speaker will use case examples from his wide experience as a previous state pathologist and professor of Forensic Medicine and later independent expert. \nRegistration for is free for IAFR members and £5 for non-members.  Please use the links below to register: \nMember Registration \nNon-member Registration

SUMMARY:Webinar #20 - Mindfulness for Healthcare Professionals
DESCRIPTION:Mindfulness for Healthcare Professionals – Courtney Steels \nPresenter Bio \nCourtney has been a radiographer since the end of 2013\, after graduating from Curtin University in Perth\, Western Australia.   After attending a Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) course in Melbourne in 2018\, Courtney’s interest in forensic radiography was sparked and she became a member of the inaugural ANZ-IAFR branch.  Her love for travel led her to work briefly in the Northern Territory before moving to the UK in April 2019 where she currently resides.  Mindfulness is a topic close to Courtney’s heart and something she is passionate about sharing with others.  Finding Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy to Courtney was like finding a toolbox at the end of a rainbow\, the principles are simple\, it makes sense and it really works.  The skills you can gain from mindfulness are applicable in any situation in or out of work.  Courtney is a big advocate for encouraging others to build mindfulness practices into their own routines. \n\nAbstract \nBeing healthcare professionals\, we have to empathise with our patients without getting too attached\, be present for them whilst we have many other things going on around us and manage the confronting things we see along the way in our roles\, putting on a brave face and carrying on.  We can be left feeling stressed or overwhelmed at times or even just find ourselves being wound up\, with a need to pause and hit the reset button.  The practice of Mindfulness is about being in the present moment and gaining skills which allow us to remain calm\, reduce stress and achieve the best focus and mental performance. During this presentation on Mindfulness for Healthcare Professionals Courtney will be discussing what mindfulness is\, the benefits and principles of mindfulness and how healthcare professionals can use these skills in their work and everyday life.   Courtney will also be sharing some important and useful resources. \nRegistration for is free for IAFR members and £5 for non-members.  Please use the links below to register: \nMember Registration \nNon-member Registration

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #17 - Post-Mortem CT
DESCRIPTION:Post-Mortem CT – Amy-Lee Brookes\n \nAmy is the Lead Post-Mortem Radiographer at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and has extensive experience in adult post-mortem imaging\, including plain-film\, CT and angiography.  Having previously worked at Great Ormond Street Hospital\, London\, Amy also has vast experience in paediatric forensic imaging\, for both living and post-mortem cases.  Amy also holds an MSc in Forensic Radiography from Teesside University. \n\nAbstract: \nIn recent years the use of post-mortem imaging techniques has increased significantly\, particularly the use of post-mortem CT (PMCT) for both coronial and home office cases within the UK. In some jurisdictions PMCT has almost completely replaced the traditional post-mortem examination for coronial cases\, although it is currently only used as an adjunct for all home office post-mortem examinations. This presentation will look at the use of CT in a dedicated NHS PMCT unit\, including the set-up of the department\, scans undertaken and case studies. \nRegistration for is free for IAFR members and £5 for non-members.  Please use the links below to register: \nMember Registration \nNon-member Registration

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #15 - Forensic Imaging in Denmark
DESCRIPTION:The Beginning of Forensic Radiography in Denmark – Christina Pedersen \nChristina has a BSc in Radiography from The University College of Northern Denmark.  She is currently the only Forensic Radiographer in Denmark and is positioned as a Forensic and Paediatric Project Radiographer in the city of Aarhus.  Her way into the forensic field was through the patient group of children under Suspected Physical Abuse\, both in the living and post-mortem cases.  She has great experience in adult forensic cases and the main tasks of her forensic work involve being a central part in evaluating PMCT scans.  She is involved in PMCTA and takes great part in this research field. \n\n  \nAbstract: \nForensic imaging in Denmark is not a new area for radiographers undertaking living cases; however in post-mortem cases it is different.  Curently\, only one radiographer is actively taking part in this daily work at one of the three Institutes of Forensic Medicine.  This results in having to think out-of-the-box and seek knowledge internationally\, along with places radiographers rarely look. \nThe radiographic work involves; performing conventional x-ray\, creating & editing CT-protocols\, assisting when performing PMCT Angiography\, along with performing research scans both on animals\, artefacts and humans. The daily CT-scans are performed by the forensic technicians\, leaving the largest task for the radiographer – performing the evaluations of the PMCT-scans. \nThe Radiographer’s special knowledge on technical aspects of imaging are highly appreciated and when imaging for forensic purposes the need for high quality is just as essential as imaging the living. A new specialized area for radiographers in Denmark is born. \n\nRegistration for is free for IAFR members and £5 for non-members.  Please use the links below to register: \nMember Registration \nNon-member Registration

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #13 - Challenges of Post-Mortem Imaging
DESCRIPTION:Challenges of Post-Mortem Radiology – Prof. Tania Grgurich \nTania Grgurich\, DHSc\, MHS\, RT(R)(M)(CT) ARRT is a Clinical Associate Professor and Computed Tomography Clinical Coordinator for Quinnipiac University’s (Hamden\, CT. USA) Radiologic Sciences and Advanced Medical Imaging and Leadership Programs.  Since 2005\, Prof. Grgurich has also volunteered as a Radiology Consultant for the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Farmington\, Connecticut\, USA. \n\nAbstract: \nPost-mortem radiography is an extremely valuable part of the autopsy process\, providing information regarding the number and location of projectiles or foreign bodies within a victim\, giving clues as to the shape of an object or the direction of the force that caused an injury\, determining accidental versus non-accidental trauma\, and aiding in the identification of individuals.  Forensic radiographers are aware that post-mortem imaging presents its own unique challenges that differ greatly from those of clinical radiography. This webinar will examine the value of post-mortem radiography and will introduce a variety of cases and challenges as well as some troubleshooting tips and tricks that can be added to your forensic radiography toolbox! \n\nRegistration for is free for IAFR members and £5 for non-members.  Please use the links below to register: \nMember Registration \nNon-member Registration

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #10 - Imaging of Archaeological & Mummified Remains
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open for IAFR Webinar #10 on Wednesday 24th April at 18:00 (BST).  The topic of this webinar will be the Imaging of Archaeological & Mummified Remains and will be delivered by Prof. Jerry Conlogue\, Professor of Diagnostic Imaging at Quinnipiac University\, Hamden\, CT who has over fifty years experience in applying medical imaging techniques to non-medical areas\, such as art conservation\, wildlife management\, archaeology\, anthropology and forensics. \nAbstract \n\nRadiographers are trained to acquire images specifically in a clinical environment.  Although their training makes them the first choice to transition into non-clinical areas\, such as anthropology and forensics\, additional training or review of basic imaging principles maybe required.  For example\, most clinical settings have shifted from film to a digital recording media\, however\, in a remote field facility only film may be available.  The following presentation considers the role of the radiographer transitioning into paleoimaging and a member of a bioantrhopology research team in a variety of field situations.  In addition\, the integration of advanced imaging modalities\, such as multi-detector computed radiography is considered. \n\n\nRegistration for is free for IAFR members and £5 for non-members. \nMembers can register online via the following link.  You will be required to log into your LoveAdmin account and register for the webinar via the ‘Events’ tab on the LoveAdmin website. \nNon-members can register via the following link

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #7 - An Introduction to Forensic Archaeology
DESCRIPTION:Roland Wessling – Roland has a BSc in Archaeological Sciences and an MSc in Forensic Archaeology. He has worked as a consultant for the UN ICTY\, on domestic criminal cases in Germany/UK and has been deployed to Cyprus and Iraq for the Inforce Foundation. He was one of the Lead Archaeologists of the excavation of 250 WWI Soldiers in Fromelles\, France. Roland is co-editor of the Cox\, et al.\, 2007\, mass grave book. He is currently employed by Cranfield University as a Lecturer and is co-director of the CRICC Team which carries out recovery and skeletal assessment investigation on conflict casualties. \nAbstract\nForensic archaeologists try to help enforcement agencies to find and recover buried human remains and other evidence and to interpret the burial context to reconstruct past events. At the same time\, forensic archaeological recovery techniques can also be employed to find missing casualties and together with anthropology\, radiography\, pathology and DNA analysis attempt to identify the individual and reunite the missing person with his or her loved ones.\nThere are a number of international organisations that utilise forensic archaeology for their humanitarian and/or forensic work\, such as CMP on Cyprus\, ICMP or the Argentinian and Guatemalan Teams as well as ad hoc teams assembled for specific investigations\, such as ICTY in Bosnia. Other forensic archaeologists concentrate on single murder cases and finally\, there is casework between the two extremes\, such as finding and identifying border crossers on the US-Mexican border\, where thousands perish every year due to dehydration or crime.

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #6 - Technical Aspects of Imaging in Medico-Legal Death Investigation
DESCRIPTION:Technical Aspects of Imaging in Medico-Legal Death Investigation / Setting up an imaging service with the police \nJeroen Kroll\, Forensic Radiology consultant\, Unit Forensic Radiology at Maastricht University Medical Center\, Chair IAFR \nIn the Netherlands\, forensic radiology is used as an independent medical forensic examination during the early stages of a forensic investigation. The leader of the investigation\, the public prosecutor\, orders a forensic radiological examination. By providing the radiological information to the entire forensic team in an early stage\, forensic follow-up investigations can be initiated. Due to this method\, there is a lot of communication between the radiology department and a diversity of parties within the forensic field\, each with their own frameworks and jargon.

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #5 - The Role of the Radiological Technologist for post mortem imaging examinations in Japan
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Tomoya Kobayashi\, Chief\, Department of Radiological Technology at Tsukuba Medical Center Hospital; Member of Postmortem Imaging Committee\, Japan Association of Radiological Technologists; Director of the Japan Society of Autopsy imaging. \nThe number of postmortem imaging (PMI) examinations has been rapidly increasing in Japan. Reasons include the extremely low rate of only 1% for conventional autopsies\, and number of installed CT and MRI units in Japan is the largest in the world. Social awareness has also grown to the use of PMI\, and is called “Autopsy imaging” after the word was used in popular mass media dramatic productions and publications.  PMI in Japan is often utilized for screening death causes in particular situations\, including for bodies arriving in emergency rooms in a state of cardiopulmonary arrest\, deaths occurring during hospitalization\, official police inquests into abnormal deaths\, and to serve as a guide to subsequent conventional autopsy.  As a result\, laws have recently been revised to facilitate death-cause detection in Japan\, and PMI has become widely-accepted as an important role of general hospitals. \nDr. Kobayashi will discuss discuss the current roles of radiological technologists in the processes of performing PMI with accuracy and precision\, the organization of PMI examination systems in hospitals\, and the education programs covering PMI procedures and ethics\, all in light of the radically changing social/medical environments and legal systems regarding PMI in Japan.

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #4 - The Importance of the Examination of the Base of Skull to the Forensic Pathologist
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Steve Naidoo\, Independent Forensic Pathologist\, Durban\, South Africa \n\n\n\nIn this presentation Dr. Naidoo looks at a series of cases he experienced at autopsies where the nature and pattern of the traumatic basal skull fracture was of particular interest in the reconstruction of the case scenario in court\, which led him to delve deeper into the betraying nature of the fracture patterns that may be seen (and notoriously difficult to image by radiography). \n\n\n\nThis talk was primarily compiled for presentation to his usual forensic audience\, but it will also be enlightening for anatomists\, anthropologists\, radiographers and radiologists and interested others to discuss some of the predicaments faced in skull-base examination in autopsy practice. These are issues of (1) Detection; (2) Pattern Recognition\, and (3) Establishing Causation. Detection requires proper basic technique and exposure\, and targeted investigation technique\, Pattern recognition requires knowledge and experience (which can be acquired)\, and establishing Causation requires application of the finding to the questions to be addressed or raised. \n\n\n\nThe cases will be illustrated with both autopsy images as well as anatomical sketches.

SUMMARY:IAFR Webinar #2 - What did the horse say to the one-legged jockey? How are you getting on?
DESCRIPTION:Lindsay Batty-Smith\, PgDip. Welfare Officer\, IAFR \nThis webinar explores possible effects radiographers may experience when repeatedly exposed pain and tragedy in the course of our work and highlight the increasing need for radiographers to be aware of how the stress of their work may affect them\, be it on a conscious or unconscious level. The Wounded Healer concept is a central theme to understand why certain people are attracted to caring professions. By exploring the background and environments where radiographers find themselves\, and through definitions of stress\, burnout and debrief (terms well known in the nursing and support professions)\, our own responses may be recognised and understood and emotional intelligence learned.

SUMMARY:DVI for Radiographers
DESCRIPTION:The Alfred Hospital\, Melbourne\, Australia \nDVI for Radiographers\n(Pre-congress workshop for ISFRI 2018)\nA Mass Disaster is defined by the fact that local resources can’t cope with the number of injured and deceased people. Therefore\, having a team of Forensic Radiographers (FRRT) trained to be deployed to assist with imaging of the deceased would prevent local Radiographers from being pressurised into providing a forensic imaging service. Forensic imaging is not a core competency of a graduate Radiographer. This is an opportunity to provide education and training for Radiographers interested in this area or who are currently involved in providing a forensic imaging service. \nAim of the Study Event\nThis training event will provide an opportunity for all radiographers to apply the principles of forensic practice and imaging learned in theory (Day 1) to a mock deployment DVI scenario (Day 2) using imaging equipment and the appropriate IAFR and Interpol paperwork. \nHow does Forensic Radiography contribute to DVI?\nForensic Radiography involves the application of imaging techniques to answer a question of law. It involves dental radiography\, radiography or CT most commonly. Following the London Bombings in July 2007\, the UK Forensic Radiography Response Team (UKFRRT) were deployed to assist in the National Emergency Mortuary. There were 3 radiography stations: fluoroscopy as part of the triage where body bags were scanned for undetonated explosives\, sharp objects or personal belongings (e.g. keys\, wallets\, mobile phones). Dental radiography was undertaken which assisted in the identification process. General radiographic surveys were performed to assist with documentation of evidence. \nPost-mortem CT scanning is becoming more common in DVI investigations. Victims of the Black Saturday Bush Fires underwent a CT scan and 2 children were identified based on this imaging. In the more recent DVI incident of MH17 \, all victims underwent a CT scan so it is important that radiographers have an opportunity to learn about the forensic aspects of becoming involved in forensic imaging. CT was also used in the 2017 terrorist incidents in the UK. \nLearning Outcomes\nAt the end of the DVI training\, the forensic radiographer will: \n\nHave an understanding of the overall DVI process\nAppreciate the role of the Forensic Radiographer in the DVI process\nBe aware of the psychological aspects of forensic imaging\nHave undertaken forensic imaging including fluoroscopy\, radiography\, dental radiography and CT in a mock deployment scenario\nHave completed the associated IAFR and Interpol paperwork to ensure continuity of evidence\nHave identified commonly seen objects in the Image Interpretation workshop\nHave participated in the AM/PM reconciliation workshop\nBe able to make an informed decision if they would like to apply for membership of their local FRRT advising of their availability for deployment\n\nPractical Training workshops\n\nDental radiography techniques \n\nRadiographers will have the opportunity to observe use of portable dental x-ray equipment and practice dental radiography techniques.\n\n\nAM v’s PM Dental Image Comparison \n\nAn opportunity to gain experience from an experienced Forensic Dentist in comparison techniques between ante-mortem and post-mortem data so the forensic radiographer appreciates what they are trying to achieve when replicating AM dental imaging. \n\n\nForensic Fluoroscopy techniques \n\nRadiographers will have the opportunity to practise screening a simulated body bag and locate artefacts interest under fluoroscopic control. This also involves the documentation of the screening process using the appropriate IAFR and Interpol forms.\n\n\nForensic Radiography techniques\n\nRadiographers will have an opportunity the use a mobile x-ray machine that could be available on deployment\, as well as documenting the radiography process using the appropriate IAFR and Interpol forms. \n\n\nPMCT \n\nAn introduction to PMCT scanning performed for DVI purposes\, including scan protocols and using the appropriate IAFR and Interpol forms.\n\n\nPattern Recognition and Practical Problems \n\nAn image viewing session on forensic image interpretation and advice on planning for their first deployment as a forensic radiographer.
