RADT 128 Clinical Radiography II

In this course, students will continue to develop the skills necessary to apply acquired didactic knowledge to produce quality radiographic images of the biliary tract, upper gastrointestinal system, lower gastrointestinal system, urinary system, skull, facial bones, and paranasal sinuses. Students will perform under the supervision of a registered technologist in a competency-based clinical education setting to advance radiography skills in patient care and assessment, positioning patients for exams, setting radiographic exposure techniques, manipulating radiographic imaging equipment, providing radiation protection, and evaluating radiographic images. Students will be introduced to common pathology on images. Clinical Radiography II is the second clinical education component of the program.
