World Radiography Day, which takes place on 8 November, marks the anniversary of the discovery of x-radiation by Wilhelm Roentgen in 1895. Radiography makes a vital contribution to modern healthcare and the University of Liverpool was at forefront of its development at the end of the nineteenth century.
To celebrate this milestone in medical history staff at the Directorate of Medical Imaging and Radiotherapy are opening their doors to enable people to find out a little more about the roles of both therapy and diagnostic radiographers and learn about cancer treatment and the hidden world revealed by medical imaging.
The Radiotherapy team will also be firing up the exciting 3D Virtual Reality theatre to enable visitors to experience their large-screen interactive radiotherapy treatment room.
A local cancer survivor group, Sunflowers, will also be in attendance offering a selection of delicious home-baked goods and crafts in return for donations.
