Her research interests are in the imaging of suspected child abuse and skeletal dysplasias and in methods of determining which children have fragile bones prone to fracture and which do not. Amaka lectures regularly on various radiology, paediatric, genetic, emergency medicine and orthopaedic courses, locally and nationally. She has contributed chapters to several well-respected radiology textbooks, and is co-author of two books, “A Radiological Atlas of Child Abuse” and “Fetal and Perinatal Skeletal Dysplasias: An Atlas of Multimodality Imaging”.

Access to cases for our imaging events
Our imaging courses are very much an interactive experience. Presentations are kept to the minimum and then you'll be into the fully featured cloud based DICOM viewer, looking at cases, feeding back your findings using our interactive tools. You'll get immediate feedback and learning points from our expert faculty member.
- Attendance of the course includes access to the database of cases associated to this event on our server at PostDICOM.
- Full access to each case with a full toolset to open, view and manipulate each case alongside the faculty but on your own screen!
- You will maintain your access to the resource throughout your 60 day catch-service period too.
Sample the DICOM viewer here. A window will load below the buttons (best demonstrated on a computer rather than mobile device)
