3.00 Credits
The course is an introduction to the science of radiographic image production and explores the details of the principles of radiographic exposure techniques. Topics of discussion include film processing, intensifying screens, grids, contrast, density, control of scatter radiation, and the management of human body variables in image production. Emphasis is placed on methods to minimize radiation exposure to the patient and self. Image production and viewing using the advances of digital radiography and associated computer technology are included. In addition, the course introduces students to the computer network systems that store, transmit, and retrieve digital radiographic images. Students will apply classroom theory in the clinical setting. Acceptance into the Radiologic Technology program is required. This course requires students to be concurrently enrolled in RADT 1032 and RADT 1781. Prerequisite(s): RADT 1020 and RADT 1031
