title: ["X-ray diagnostics - discipline-bound skeleton" and "magnetic resonance imaging - discipline-bound". Attempt at analysis of the achieved and the achievable].
abstract: The presently valid regulation for professional advanced training from the year 2003 has already experienced much discussion about its meaningfulness and practicality. One of the essential changes for physicians active in discipline 6 (surgery) is the reform of X-ray analysis as specialist supplementary training. The discipline orthopedics and trauma surgery is particularly dependent on the application of economical diagnostics and therapy control with conventional X-ray imaging as well as modern computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Simultaneously, there exist national government regulations for X-ray and radiation protection, which place already clear demands on the competence of individual physicians. The sometimes seemingly complicated regulations and their interaction will be described in this article and recommendations for planning one's own professional competence and demonstration of competence (advanced training) will be given.
