RTC 203 — Special Procedures
Students learn about the specialized and highly technical procedures in radiography, such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and angiography, and the general indications for each examination. Students will be introduced to Radiation Oncology, Nuclear Medicine, and Bone Densitometry. Quality control methods are also covered. Selected radiographs supplement anatomical review of the systems to be examined, prior to radiographic procedures. Lecture is supplemented with demonstrations and opportunities for students to practice the skills in the radiography lab. Critiques of radiographic images are conducted in the classroom/laboratory.
