-
2.00 Credits
Fall This course is divided into two parts. The first part will develop the student's proficiency in nursing procedures and techniques used in the general care of the patientwith emphasis on the role of the radiologic technologist in various clinical situations. The second part of this course will acquaint the student with various diseases and help the student to understand the disease process, including changeswhich occur in disease and injury and their application to radiologic technology. The foundation built in this coursewill aid the student in decisions regarding patient care and radiography. Students will be required to research topics for written and oral presentation. Open to matriculated Radiologic Technology students only. Prerequisite: BIOL 271, Anatomy & Physiology II. Corequisite: XRAY 206, Clinical Education IV.
