3.00 Credits
In this third course of a series of three courses, students will learn the gross and topographic anatomic structures, pertinent medical terminology, as well as relevant body positions and sequences that are associated with the following radiographic exams: special views of the chest, upper and lower extremities, facial bones, as well as minor specialties: mammography, emergency room radiography, and genito-urinary imaging. In addition, students will review the anatomy and positioning for exams covered in prior semesters. Concurrently, the routine body positions required to obtain routine radiographic images for these exams will be practiced and evaluated within laboratory sessions. There will be two two-hour lectures per week. The class will be divided into two four-hour lab sections per week. The course will run for the first seven weeks of the semester.

3.00 Credits
This culmination of study of the principles, factors, and practices associated with the production of medical radiographic images will focus on combining all principles and practices that were covered in the prior two semesters within a coherent, comprehensive approach to the development of a technical, imaging protocol system. In addition, students will study the general operation/function of CT and MRI equipment. Laboratory exercises will assist the student in application of the factors studied to produce consistent, quality images. There will be two two-hour lectures per week. The class will be divided into two four-hour lab sections per week. The course will run for the second seven weeks of the semester.

6.00 Credits
During this intensive, 12-week clinical preceptorship, students will develop higher-level performance competency of those exams that were covered during the freshman year. Emphasis will be placed on students demonstrating progressively increased levels of organizational skill, performance speed, and accuracy as they progress through the semester. During the first two weeks, students will return to the classroom and lab to receive formal training in the performance of venipuncture for the purpose of administration of radiologic contrast agents as well as instruction on the anatomy and positioning of the skull and sinus. The clinical practicum will consist of five seven-hour day clinical preceptorship days per week for 10 weeks. Assignment to a second Clinical Site and possibly a third will occur during Clinical III. Weekly clinical conferences/ critique sessions will be incorporated.

4.00 Credits
Students will continue to develop confidence in the performance of those radiographic exams that were incorporated in the prior three semesters of study. In addition, they will progress from structured observational experiences through guided clinical application of procedure performance skills to assessment and achievement of appropriate clinical competency in the performance of those radiologic exams studied in Radiologic Procedures with Related Anatomy III and Lab. Students will be given performance benchmarks as guidelines as they develop confidence and competence in the performance of selected radiographic (and in selected cases, fluoroscopic and bedside/portable) exams of the chest, abdomen, upper and lower extremities, skull, sinus, genito-urinary system, and those exam studies that are commonly performed within the Emergency Room/Urgent Care setting. There will be three seven-hour day clinical preceptorship days per week for 15 weeks. Daily clinical conferences/critique sessions will be incorporated. In addition, students will participate in a two-week intensive clinical experience at the beginning of the session.

4.00 Credits
Students will continue to develop confidence in the performance of those radiographic exams which were incorporated in the prior three semesters' study. In addition, they will demonstrate "Exit Competency" intheir performance of all exams required for graduation from the program. Students will also present a portfolio that demonstrates their performance in the clinical environment for the past four semesters. There will be three seven-hour day clinical preceptorship days per week for 15 weeks. Daily clinical conferences/critique sessions will be incorporated.

3.00 Credits
Selected exams in cardiovascular/peripheral-vascular imaging and interventional radiology will be studied. In addition, students will learn the fundamental elements of body sectional images in the axial, coronal, and sagittal planes. Lastly, students will engage in an intensive review of all material covered in prior semesters followed by comprehensive performance testing, with established minimum acceptable criteria, in those materials. This course will run for 15 weeks and will consist of a combination of classroom sessions, computer lab exercises, and guided self-study exercises.
-
2.00 Credits
In this course, common radiologic findings relating to those exams that were covered during the prior semesters will be presented. Basic pathophysiologic processes relating to those findings will also be covered. Emphasis will be placed on the students' ability to increase their proficiency in assessing the diagnostic completeness of the images they produce. A combination of guest lectures from radiologists, guided selfstudy exercises, and classroom discussions will run for two hours per week for 15 weeks.

Museum Studies I introduces students to the history of museums and the various aspects of museum work viewed from historical, philosophical, and practical perspectives. Particular attention is paid to the public role museums play as education partners and non-profit organizations with a cultural focus. The course surveys the diversity of museums and examines the main operations common to all museums, such as governance, finance, education, marketing, exhibitions, and collections management. (Prerequisite for MS 202.)

Museum Studies II introduces the student to organizational behavior in the museum setting. Issues such as multiculturalism, corporate sponsorship, cultural stereotyping, ownership, and authenticity will be examined. Students gain practical experience through real-world museum challenges in selected areas of importance, for example, exhibitions, education, grant writing, collections policy, and long-range planning.
