4.00 Credits
This course will provide the student with an introduction to radiologic imaging. Topics will include the role of the radiographer in the health-care setting, the history of radiography, basic radiation safety, and ethical and legal issues for radiographers. Appropriate radiographer conduct and communication skills in the clinic setting will be discussed along with radiograhic anatomy and procedural considerations, patient care, pharmacology, safety, and emergency procedutes. In the lab, students will learn positioning terminology, equipment manipulation, the proper positioning of the appendicular skeleton, lungs and abdomen. In addition, students will learn to evaluate images for proper exposure factors and demonstration of anatomy. Prerequisite(s): BIO 171 Corequisite(s): ALH 122, BIO 172, RAD 121
