3.00 Credits
This course discusses the construction and operation of radiographic tubes, property and production of x-rays, and factors affecting the quality of a radiograph. The class information includes production of radiation and reaction with matter. Radiographic contrast, density, and detail will be emphasized. Prerequisites: RADI 201, 201L, 202.
-
2.00 Credits
Advanced positioning of the patient including discussion of special procedures and the equipment used during the advanced procedures will be covered. Study of the position of major blood vessels, structures, and organs of the head, neck, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis. Venipuncture and contrast media injection lecture and lab will be emphasized. Prerequisites: RADI 210, 211, 211L, 212.
-
6.00 Credits
The third in a series of clinical courses that will provide the student with the opportunity to gain competence in clinical education in the art and science of radiography. The student shall continue to expand knowledge and skills in obtaining health histories for patient of all ages. The student shall perform vital signs and practice physical assessments during contrast media procedures. The student shall continue to practice patient education skills and continue developing sensitivity to patient's needs. This course will clinically integrate headwork and advanced procedure examinations. The student shall continue to demonstrate the skills required to assess patient condition and then formulate techniques and position routine radiologic examinations under direct or indirect supervision of a registered radiographer, depending on his/her level of competency. The hours spent in clinical lab will be divided among day and evening rotations. Prerequisites: RADI 210, 211, 211L, 212.
-
1.00 Credits
This unit is designed to include regional anatomy in coronal, sagittal, and axial images, oblique sections, and three dimensional reconstruction with emphasis and applications toward medical imaging such as Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Diagnostic Sonography. Prerequisites: RADI 210, 211, 211L, 212.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will provide the student with knowledge of equipment routinely utilized to produce diagnostic images. Much of the course focus is x-ray circuitry and fluoroscopic equipment. Also included is mobile, tomography, and enhancement equipment. Various recording media and techniques are discussed. Prerequisites: RADI 210, 211, 211L, 212
-
2.00 Credits
A study of the various diseases and recognition between bacterial and viral organisms will be covered. The student will also recognize conditions of illness involving the different systems of the body and the pathological effects of radiographs Prerequisites: RADI 301, 301L, 302, 304.
-
6.00 Credits
The fourth in a series of clinical courses that will provide the student with the opportunity to gain competence in clinical education in the art and science of radiography. The student shall continue to expand knowledge and skills in obtaining health histories for patient of all ages. Clinical experience will be gained under the direct and indirect supervision of accredited professionals. Students will have opportunities to perform procedures on more critically ill patients and continue to practice physical assessment skills. Students will learn to adapt routine positioning and technique procedures determined by patient condition. Clinical experience will be scheduled during both daytime and evening shift hours. Prerequisites: RADI 301, 301L, 302, 304.
-
3.00 Credits
RADI students will gain knowledge of the history, equipment, principles, imaging procedures, disease pathologies, patient care, and contrast media relative to CVIT. Lab experience will also be gained to prepare the learner for application in the clinical area. Prerequisite: consent of the instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
RADI students who selected Computed Tomography (CT), as their choice of modality, will gain knowledge of the history, equipment, principles, imaging procedures, disease pathologies, patient care, and contrast media relative to CT. Prerequisite: consent of the instructor.
-
2.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide mammography education to students enrolled in the Radiologic Science Program and/or to registered radiologic technologists who desire to continue their education in an area of advanced specialization. The course content will encompass a sequential and complete mammographic study to include: history, breast anatomy, physiology, and pathology, equipment and application of technique, breast positioning, intervention procedures, quality control, and patient relations. The clinical education component of the mammography modality is not included in this course. Radiographers who can document clinical experience may be exempt from the clinical component. Prerequisite: consent of the instructor.
