3.00 Credits
The organization and operation of an x-ray department. Medical terminology and radiologic topics including elementary radiation hygiene, professional ethics, darkroom techniques, photographic principles of radiographic exposure, film and intensifying screens are presented. Common contrast media will be addressed. Prerequisite: Placement above or successful completion of ENG 060 (EN 2103) Recommendation: Concurrent enrollment in ENG 075 (EN 2122) or ENG 085 (EN 2131) if CPT reading placement test is between 68 and 75 Intensive Value: Multicultural/Global Awareness; Values/Ethics/ Social Policy
-
3.00 Credits
Presents all routine radiographic positions and applicable anatomy of the appendicular skeleton. Laboratory positioning exercises prepare the student for practical application of the positions in the assigned radiology department. 3 hours lecture/demonstration. Prerequisite: Placement above or successful completion of ENG 060 (EN 2103). Corequisite: RAD 103 (RT 1105). Recommendation: Concurrent enrollment in ENG 075 (EN 2122) or ENG 085 (EN 2131) if CPT reading placement test is between 68 and 75.

16.00 Credits
Included in this experience are departmental orientation, a working understanding of medical ethics, patient contact, and observation and performance of indicated radiographic examinations under close supervision with positioning of the chest, abdomen, upper and lower extremities, resulting in performance competency. 16 hours weekly Corequisite: RAD 102 (RT 1107)
-
3.00 Credits
Radiologic Physics expands the principles of general physics presented in Technical Math and Physics TMA 080 (MA 3107). The student will learn the general principles of electrical physics and the relationship of these principles to the field of Radiologic Technology. The concepts will include an understanding of the principles (physics concepts and components) required in the electrical production of x-radiation in the clinical setting, and of the physics principles used in image capture techniques. The student will also review the basic interactions of radiation with matter. Course offered in the Spring semester. Prerequisite: TMA 080 (MA 3107).
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of RAD 102 (RT 1107) including applicable anatomy and positioning of the axial skeleton, upper and lower GI tract, urinary and biliary systems. Role playing prepare the student for practical application of the positions in their assigned radiology department. 3 hours lecture/demonstration Prerequisite: RAD 102 (RT 1107) Corequisite: RAD 107 (RT 1106)
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of RAD 101 (RT 1101) including the topics of patient care, contrast media, radiographic quality, utilization of devices for improving the radiographic image, and equipment sterilization. Prerequisites: RAD 101 (RT 1101), RAD 103 (RT 1105)
-
16.00 Credits
A continuation and progression of the basic fundamentals of radiographic positioning and exposure, to include examinations of the shoulder girdle, pelvis and hips, ribs and sternum, spine, urinary tract and biliary system. Also provides the student with additional film critique 16 hours weekly (except during winter break). Prerequisite: RAD 103 (RT 1105). Corequisite: RAD 105 (RT 1108)
-
40.00 Credits
A ten-week summer clinical experience providing the student with the opportunity to improve skills and gain confidence in the application of new techniques, and the principles of pediatric radiography. 40 hours weekly/15 weeks. Prerequisite: RAD 107 (RT 1106)
-
3.00 Credits
Major topics include skull, facial and sinus anatomy and positioning. Special radiographic procedures to include myelography, arthrography, angiography, skeletal surveys tomography and pediatric imaging will be introduced. Prerequisite: RAD 106 (RT 1102), RAD 105 (RT 1108) Intensive Value: Computer Literacy
-
3.00 Credits
Designed to provide fundamental information in the area of applied radiobiology, course topics will include basic interactions of radiation and matter, biological effects, radiation dose, occupational and non-occupational dose equivalent limits, exposure monitoring and units of measurement. Radiographic pathology will be included. Prerequisites: RAD 106 (RT 1102) and RAD 104 (RT 1103)
