3.00 Credits
3 semester hours (3 hours theory per week) This course focuses on the theories, physics, application and instrumentation of Computed Tomography (CT) equipment. The student will examine and critique image analysis as a means in learning to evaluate images for correct technique, imaging protocols and identification of proper anatomy. The course will also examine and explore means of correcting poor images and artifact identification. Prerequisites: MI 410 or MI 411.

3.00 Credits
3 semester hours (3 hours theory per week) This course details the physical and biological principles of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). A historical perspective leading to the development of MRI and an introduction of the fundamentals of electricity and magnetism will be presented. The process of MRI will be discussed in detail, beginning with the patient entering the room through the final developing of hard-copy films. This course will also present the latest imaging methods available in MRI as they evolve. Prerequisites: MI 410 or MI 411.

3.00 Credits
3 semester hours (3 hours theory per week) This course discusses the latest imaging methods in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Spin echo, gradient imaging, angiography, echo planar imaging, and the use of contrast agents and artifacts in MRI will be discussed. Related anatomical and physiological changes in various health states as revealed in MRI will be emphasized, with particular attention given to the central nervous system, thorax, abdomen, pelvis and extremities. The course is comprehensive, in that it spans from an examination and exploration of human responses to MRI procedures, through to the administration of an MRI department. Prerequisite: MI 421.

3.00 Credits
3 semester hours (3 hours theory per week) This course focuses on angiographic and interventional procedures. The students will be exposed to the basics of sterile technique, recording systems, automatic injectors, contrast media, catheters and accessories. The principles of angiography (arteriography, venography and lymphography) are presented, along with critiques of radiographic images. A wide range of vascular and nonvascular interventional procedures are examined in detail.
-
3.00 Credits
3 semester hours (3 hours theory per week) This course is designed to provide participants the requisite theories, concepts, and praxis in performing mammographic procedures. Patient positioning, quality control and necessary patient education, along with the critique of radiographic images, serve as the foci of this course. The course also introduces the process of mammography image analysis where the participants will evaluate various images for correct positioning, proper technique and undesired artifacts.

3.00 Credits
3 semester hours (3 hours theory per week) This course focuses on the anatomy, physiology and pathology of the human structural support system. The course will focus on the history of bone densitometry, tracing the early roots of the modality all the way through its advancements in today's scanners. The course will cover bone anatomy in detail, down to its cellular components. Bone pathologies that are significant to bone densitometry will also be covered in detail with an emphasis on osteoporosis.

3.00 Credits
3 semester hours?? (3 hours theory per week) This course is designed for the student going into department supervision and management. The student will learn the basics of budgets, personnel scheduling, counseling, and administrative and leadership duties.
-
3.00 Credits
3 semester hours (3 hours theory per week) This course explores the essential components of Digital Imaging Systems for a diagnostic imaging facility. The process of digital imaging will be discussed in detail, focusing on the various aspects from initial selection and purchase to analysis and quality control of the system. Legal and security issues will also be discussed. Pre-requisite: MI 308. Co-requisite: MI 308.
-
