RT143–RadiographicProceduresIV–45ClockHours/4.5QuarterCreditHours Prerequisite: Completion of Module III with a “C” or better. This course provides the knowledge base necessary to perform standard imaging. The emphasis is on basic imagingoftheCranium,TraumaRadiography,MobileRadiography,andSurgicalRadiography.Considerationwill begiventotheproductionofimagesofoptimaldiagnosticquality.Coursemethodswillincorporatelectures, demonstrations, image analyses, positioning lab practicum, and self-paced study using multimedia programs. Students must demonstratecompetencyinpositioningskills, equipment manipulation, and radiation protection before performing these skills under direct supervision in the patient care setting. RT143L–RadiographicProceduresIVLab–33ClockHours/1.5QuarterCreditHours Prerequisite: Completion of Module III with a “C” or better. Thecourseprovidesinformationnecessarytoperformradiographicproceduresofthecraniumandfacial bones,including sinuses, zygomatic arches, TMJs, orbits, and mandibles. Students will also demonstrate special techniques for trauma cases and mobile radiography. Consideration will be given to the production of images of optimal diagnostic quality.
