( Log in ) Home Skip available courses Available courses Testing Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Anatomy and Physiology I Study is made of human anatomy and its function. Areas include general cell and tissue structure, the respiratory system, general bone structure, the lower extremities, the upper extremities, and the genitourinary system. Detailed topographic anatomy, positioning landmarks, and radiographic appearance are covered. Teacher: Krista Lewis Clinical Education I A continuous process beginning with supervised correlation of theory and actual performance of examinations to unassisted performance and decision-making in a variety of situations. Clinical rotation guidelines assist the student as they progress form one area to another. Regular evaluations are an integral part of this process. Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Patient Care and Management I The course encompasses subjects pertinent to the care and examination of the patient and work within the profession. Study is made of patient assessment and communication, safety, infection control, vital signs, pediatric imaging, and geriatric imaging. Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Radiation Protection This course investigates detection and measurement of radiation, sources of radiation exposure, occupational and general public dose equivalent limits, methods for minimizing exposure to patient, self, and others, and application of federal and state regulations. Teacher: Robert Hughes Radiographic Exposure This course introduces students to the factors that control the radiation exposure to the image receptor. The primary exposure factors , differential absorption, patient and equipment factors that affect exposure, spatial resolution, distortion , and magnification are covered. Students will work to formulate a technique chart. Emphasis is placed on practical applications of basic laws and theories in problem-solving situations and formulation of techniques in the production of quality images. Teacher: Robert Hughes Radiographic Procedures I Study of the common and supplementary positions and procedures for the respiratory system, abdominal cavity, lower extremities from the knee to the toe, and upper extremities from the elbow to the finger. Anatomical landmarks, anatomy, body habiti, and special patient considerations are emphasized. Laboratory demonstration is used for patient correlation. Clinical Education II A continuous process beginning with supervised correlation of theory and actual performance of examinations to unassisted performance and decision-making in a variety of situations. Clinical rotation guidelines assist the student as they progress form one area to another. Regular evaluations are an integral part of this process. Teacher: Robert Hughes Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Radiographic Equipment Study is made of the basic structure of matter, electricity, magnetism , and their interrelationships. That knowledge is applied to the construction and function of x-ray generators , circuitry components, the x-ray tube , and fluoroscopic image intensifier. X-ray production and emission are discussed in detail. Teacher: Robert Hughes Pathology I Discussion is made of medical/surgical diseases with diagnostic evaluation and treatment. The impact of disease and pathology is explored in patient evaluation, image quality, and performance of various radiographic procedures. Areas include the imaging modalities, general pathological processes, the respiratory system, and the portions of the skeletal system. Teacher: Krista Lewis Patient Care and Management II The course encompasses subjects pertinent to the care and examination of the patient and work within the profession. Study is made of medical emergencies, trauma, urologic and gastrointestinal procedures, aseptic technique, ECG, and an introduction to pharmacology and drug administration. Teacher: Krista Lewis Anatomy and Physiology II Study is made of human anatomy and its function. Areas include the gastrointestinal system and accessory organs, spine and thorax, skull, heart, and cardiovascular system. Detailed topographic anatomy, positioning landmarks, and radiographic appearance are covered. Teacher: Krista Lewis Radiographic Procedures II Study of the common and supplementary positions and procedures for the upper and lower GI system , urinary system, pelvic girdle and femur, and shoulder girdle and humerus. Anatomical landmarks, anatomy, body habiti, and special patient considerations are emphasized. Laboratory demonstration is used for patient correlation. Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Special Procedures I This course involves lectures and practice in specialized procedures and interventional exams. Study is made of positioning, supplies, precautions, and patient care during these procedures. Topics include myelograms, hysterograms, arthrograms, and general tomography. Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Clinical Education III A continuous process beginning with supervised correlation of theory and actual performance of examinations to unassisted performance and decision-making in a variety of situations. Clinical rotation guidelines assist the student as they progress form one area to another. Regular evaluations are an integral part of this process. Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Imaging Modalities The student is introduced to the equipment and general operation of the imaging and therapeutic modalities. Topics include tomography, DEXA, MRI, CVIT, mammography, sonography, nuclear medicine, radiation therapy, and dosimetry. Teacher: Krista Lewis Digital Imaging Study is made of the role of digital systems in the modern imaging environment. Correlation of basic exposure principles as applied to the creation, pre-processing, post-processing, display, and storage of images in a digital environment. Special consideration is given to the differences in CR and DR as well as the quality factors of the display system. Teacher: Robert Hughes Radiation Biology This course relates the physical and biologic effects of radiation to human life and the environment. Interactions of x-rays and matter are studied in depth. Effects on a molecular, cellular, and whole body level are correlated to short and long term effects. Survival statistics and risk estimates are also studied. Teacher: Robert Hughes Radiographic Procedures III Study of the common and supplementary positions and procedures for the spinal column, bony thorax, and skull. Anatomical landmarks, anatomy, body habiti, and special patient considerations are emphasized. Laboratory demonstration is used for patient correlation. Teacher: Robert Hughes Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Pathology II Discussion is made of medical/surgical diseases with diagnostic evaluation and treatment. The impact of disease and pathology is explored in patient evaluation, image quality, and performance of various radiographic procedures. Areas include portions of the skeletal system and the digestive system. Teacher: Krista Lewis Clinical Education IV Teacher: Robert Hughes Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Radiographic Procedures IV Teacher: Krista Lewis Teacher: Chelsea Muckey Cross-Sectional Anatomy Teacher: Krista Lewis Pathology III Teacher: Krista Lewis Independent Research Students prepare a research paper and scientific exhibit from a topic within the radiation sciences. This course provides practical skills and steps needed in the planning, design, collection of data, analysis, and inference of findings for the research process . Students will also practice the practical writing of departmental policies and communications. Teacher: Robert Hughes Special Procedures II This course involves lectures and practice in...
