In a department not nearly as equipped as those you’ll be used to at home, you’ll still have the opportunity to work with X-ray and ultrasound, and see a whole range of conditions. On a radiography elective in Takoradi, you can expect to observe and assist with hysterosalphingograms, barium meals, ureothograms, and fistusograms. Outside of your clinical experience, what could be better than a long walk on the beach after a day on the ward? Or if you're feeling more adventurous, a visit Mole Game Park to discover local wildlife should certainly be on your list. Read what our students think below!
