  • 1.00 Credits

    Class hours: 48-54 laboratory. Limitation on Enrollment: A current health care provider cardiopulmonary resuscitation card is required. Transfer Credit: CSU. Discussion, application, and timed simulated performance of medical procedures and techniques commonly used in diagnostic imaging. Proper body mechanics for patient transfer by wheelchair or stretcher. Use of blood pressure equipment, enema administration, and Foley catheterization kits. Isolation techniques, including portable equipment. Medical and surgical aseptic technique is studied in depth. 1225.00 patient-centered clinical practice, professional development, and corresponding working relationships with other health care professionals. 1225.00
  • 3.00 Credits

    Class hours: 48-54 lecture. Transfer Credit: CSU. Study of film, screens, film-screen combinations, processing, grids, quality control, quality management, and quality assurance. A significant portion of the course is devoted to circuitry of the radiographic tube. Image archiving, digital and film-less radiography are also discussed, as well as different radiographic equipment such as conventional tomography. Radiation protection methods are studied in depth. 1225.00
  • 1.00 Credits

    Class hours: 48-54 laboratory. Transfer Credit: CSU. On-campus radiographic laboratory is used for a series of experiments complementing the didactic instruction. Experiments illustrate radiation theory in regards to radiographic image quality, film/screen combinations, the use and misuse of grids, automatic processing, and radiographic quality assurance, management and control. 1225.00
  • 8.00 Credits

    Class hours: 384-432 laboratory. Transfer Credit: CSU. Clinical practice experiences designed for sequential development, application, critical analysis, integration, synthesis and evaluation of concepts and theories in the performance of radiologic procedures. Through structured sequential, competency based assignments in clinical setting, concepts of team practice, patient-centered clinical practice and professional development are discussed, examined, evaluated, and reinforced. Emphasis is on patient care assessment, competent performance of radiologic images, and total quality management. Students achieve and demonstrate levels of competency and measurable outcomes that ensure the well being of the patient preparatory to, during, and following the procedures. 1225.00
  • 3.00 Credits

    Class hours: 48-54 lecture. Limitation on Enrollment: Proof of graduation from an accredited radiologic technology program, proof of an ARRT or CRT license, or proof of current enrollment in a radiologic technology program is required. Study of mammography. Patient education, anatomy, physiology, positioning and pathology of the breast, clinical breast examinations, instrumentation, and mammography techniques. Special emphasis on communication techniques and professional ethical/ legal considerations. 1225.00
  • 1.50 Credits

    Class hours: 24-27 lecture. Corequisite: Radiologic Technology 460L. Advisory: Student should be a 2nd year radiography student or a graduate of JRCERT-approved radiography program, and possess a current health care provider CPR card. Basic concepts of pharmacology. Theory and practice of basic techniques of venipuncture, anatomy and physiology of venipuncture sites, instrumentation and related equipment, and the administration of diagnostic contrast agents and/or intravenous medications. Training standards and limitations of a radiologic technologist in the performance of venipuncture in an upper extremity. Appropriate delivery of patient care before, during, and after procedures is emphasized, along with the hazards and complications of venipuncture, and anaphylactic shock. Fulfills the requirements of Section 106985 of the California Health and Safety Code relating to radiologic technology. 1225.00
  • 0.50 Credits

    Class hours: 24-27 laboratory. Corequisite: Radiologic Technology 460. Advisory: Student should be a 2nd year radiography student or a graduate of JRCERT-approved radiography program, and possess a current health care provider CPR card. Application of skills and reinforcement of theory in the basic concepts of pharmacology. Provides the practice necessary to perform a minimum of 10 successful "live" skills on individuals (classmates and guests).Demonstration of the anatomy and physiology of venipuncture sites, venipuncture instrumentation, I.V. solutions, and related equipment, with students executing a simulated demonstration prior to actual performance. Patient care aspects of venipuncture are emphasized. 1225.00
  • 6.00 Credits

    Class hours: 288-324 laboratory. Transfer Credit: CSU. Continued clinical practice experiences designed for sequential development, application, critical analysis, integration, synthesis and evaluation of concepts and theories in the performance of radiologic procedures. Through structured sequential, competency-based assignments in clinical setting, concepts of team practice, patient-centered clinical practice and professional development are discussed, examined, evaluated, and reinforced. Emphasis is on patient care and assessment, competent performance of radiologic images, and total quality management. Students achieve and demonstrate increasing levels of competency and measurable outcomes that ensure the well being of the patient preparatory to, during, and following the procedure. 1225.00
