  • RDTK 1583: RADIOGRAPHIC PROCEDURES I

    3.00 Credits
    Laramie County Community College

    A continuation of RDTK 1503. This course is designed to introduce the student to the anatomy and positioning of additional radiographic examinations. Specifically, the student learns and develops positioning skills for the shoulder girdle, lower extremity, pelvis, entire spine, sternum, ribs, portables, trauma, and reviews geriatric and pediatric radiography. The student also demonstrates competency in the anatomy, positioning, and radiographic demonstration of the gastrointestinal (alimentary canal) system, the genitourinary system. Students complete I.V. training and identify and describe the characteristics of various contrast media, radiologic pharmaceuticals, contrast reactions, and the responsibilities of the radiographer in such situations. Prerequisite: Completion of RDTK 1503.

  • RDTK 1584: RADIOGRAPHIC LAB I

    1.00 Credits
    Laramie County Community College

    A course to be taken concurrently with RDTK 1583, which allows the simulated application of the principles learned in RDTK 1583 and film critique. The student radiographer becomes proficient at exposing, developing, and critiquing radiographs of the shoulder, lower extremity, pelvis, entire spine, sternum, and ribs in the campus lab. Students also perform gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and biliary procedures in a competent manner through simulated applications. Prerequisite: Completion of RDTK 1503. Corequisite: Concurrent enrollment in RDTK 1583.

  • RDTK 1610: RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGING I

    3.00 Credits
    Laramie County Community College

    In this course, students outline the physical theories of X-ray production and the atomic interactions which take place during the radiologic image acquisition process. Students evaluate radiographic images and predict the effects that various technical factors, including equipment, technique factors (i.e. mAs and kVp), accessory devices, and image receptor systems have upon radiographic image qualities and patient dose. Prerequisite: Completion of RDTK 1503. Corequisite: Concurrent enrollment in RDTK 1583, RDTK 1584, and RDTK 1611.

  • RDTK 1683: RADIOGRAPHIC PROCEDURES II

    3.00 Credits
    Laramie County Community College

    Students are provided with the knowledge and practical skills necessary to perform invasive radiographic procedures of gastrointestinal (GI), genitourinary (GU), biliary, and female reproductive systems, as well as arthrography, myelography. The course covers radiographic anatomy, positioning techniques, and image analysis of these exams. Students become familiar with the safe usage of stationary and mobile fluoroscopic equipment in a surgical setting. The basic concepts of bone densitometry (DXA) will also be introduced. This course is offered in the summer semester.
