Academic Background and Training

Fazal Ahmad holds a postgraduate academic foundation in Life Sciences, with specialization in Anatomy and Physiology, which provided a strong scientific basis for his later work in radiology education. He subsequently pursued postgraduate level professional training in Radiology and Medical Imaging, strengthening his understanding of imaging technology, radiographic principles, and applied diagnostic concepts relevant to allied health education.

In addition, he completed formal undergraduate level academic training in alternative and complementary health sciences, which contributed to his early exposure to human biology, health concepts, and patient centered perspectives. This interdisciplinary academic experience supported his transition into radiology teaching during the developmental phase of allied health education programs.

His overall academic development reflects a multidisciplinary orientation that integrates life sciences, imaging based education, and structured skill development. This integrated background has informed his long term engagement in teaching radiology and imaging technology, curriculum delivery, and academic authorship for undergraduate, postgraduate, and allied health education programs.
