    Prereq: Acceptance into the Radiologic Technology Program. Students will gain a thorough understanding of medical terminology and the principles of exposure by correlating basic rules with practical application. The factors affecting radiographic density and contrast will be explored using experiments and classroom applications. Students will be instructed in radiation safety and protection both for the patient and themselves. Fundamentals of electricity relating to radiology equipment will be covered. There will be an introductory course designed to give students basic concepts and procedures relating to the clinical setting. This will be presented in the educational site energized laboratory. Students will gain knowledge and understanding of anatomical structures of the chest and abdomen and will learn how to obtain diagnostic images of these areas meeting mandatory clinical competency requirements set by the Joint Review Committee on Education for Radiologic Technologists.
