Our course participants use the largest digital X-ray laboratory in Switzerland. In the fully equipped training hospital, there are a total of 3 X-ray systems with practical equipment as well as 7 additional X-ray systems for experiments. Using numerous phantoms such as the skull, spine, pelvis, thorax, hand and foot, comparisons of image quality and dose can be made.

In addition, you will find the now only red light laboratory for practicing conventional X-ray techniques that are still included in some training regulations.
