RADT 1009 Digital Image Acquisition Content is designed to impart an understanding of the components, principles and operation of digital imaging systems found in diagnostic radiology. Factors that impact image acquisition, display, archiving and retrieval are discussed. Guidelines for selecting exposure factors and evaluating images within a digital system assist students to bridge between film-based and digital imaging systems. This is a required course for the Radiologic Science cohort. Prequisites: Successful completion of RADT 1004 (1003, 1005, 1112) 2-0-2. (Sp)

3.00 Credits
The student is introduced to work experience in clinical sites with supervision by the college radiologic technology clinical instructor and designated members of the staff of the facility. Students will observe the clinical radiology environment and begin performing basic procedures which involve radiography of the chest, upper and lower extremities, and abdominal cavity under direct supervision as well as observe darkroom techniques, and fil room process. Prerequisite: RADT 1001, 1002. 1-19-3.
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of Radiology 1112, the student observes and performs radiographic procedures and techniques previously learned. Additionally, the student will begin performing radiography of the spinal column and cranium under direct supervision. An introduction/observation to surgical radiographic procedures will also be completed. An in- depth study of the components of a radiographic panel/room are included. Prerequisites; RADT 1003, 1004, and 1112. 1-19-4.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces the concepts of basic physics and emphasizes the fundamentals of x-ray generating equipment. Topics include units of measurement, atomic structure, structure of matter, electrostatics,s magnetism and electromagnetism, electrodynamics, control of high voltage, rectification, x-ray circuitry, radiographic equipment, image intensified fluoroscopy, recording media and techniques, and computer literacy. Prerequisite: RADT 1005. 3-2-4.
-
2.00 Credits
This course will provide the student with an introduction to the concept of disease. Pathology and disease, as it relates to various radiographic procedures, will be discussed. Special procedures to demonstrate pathology will also be a focus of this course. Prerequisite: RADT 1006, 1113 and 2004.
-
3.00 Credits
A final, comprehensive course that reviews and interrelates concepts previously covered in the curriculum. It provides the student with a meaningful approach to evaluate previous learning and to investigate areas of needed preparation for employment and credentialing. The course also includes employment interview skills and related concepts such as resume preparation. Prerequisite: All other didactic Radiologic Science courses. 3-0-3.

4.00 Credits
RADT 2004 Introduction to Computed Tomography Pre-Requisites: Summer 2010 only: RADT 1005, RADT 1113 Pre-Requisites: Summer 2011 and beyond: RADT 1006, RADT 1009, RADT 1113 3-2-4 Content is designed to impart an understanding of the components, principles, and operation of computed tomography (CT) imaging systems found in diagnostic radiology. Factors that impact image acquisition, display, archiving and retrieval are discussed. Guidelines for performing basic chest, abdomen, head, neck, and pelvis CT examinations will be covered. Methods to reduce patient exposure to ionizing radiation will be discussed. This is a required course for the Radiologic Science cohort.
-
1.00 Credits
RADT 2005 Radiographic Pharmacology and Venipuncture 1 - 0 - 1 Pre-Requisites: RADT 1006, 1009, 113 Content provides the basic concepts of pharmacology, venipuncture and adminsitration of diagnostic contrast agents and intravenous medications. The appropriate delivery of patient care during these procedures is emphasized. This is a required course for the Radiologic Science cohort.
-
2.00 Credits
This course involves the assignment of students to clinical sites for training and performane of procedures previously learned. In addition, radiographic surgical procedures and tomography will be incorporated in the unit. An in-depth study of the components of a radiographic fluoroscopic unit will be included as well as composition of image receptor types and classifications. Prerequisites: RADT 1005, 1113. 1-19-2.
-
5.00 Credits
A continuation of RADT 2221, the student continues to work in all areas and perform previously learned procedures. A study of mammography will be incorporated as well as orientation to special procedures (major and minor). Prerequisites: RADT 2001, 2221. 1-24-5.
