Transfers ToCSUDescriptionThis course establishes a basic knowledge of the applications of fundamental properties of radiation, x-ray production, and interaction of photons with matter. Theoretical and applied concepts are correlated with laboratory results in a series of experiments conducted in on-campus live radiography laboratory. Through a process of discussion, demonstration, return demonstration, group sharing, and demonstration evaluation, students correlate concepts with production of radiographic images. Experiments demonstrate applications of production of x-rays, facilitating student acquisition of competency and skill in the use of radiographic equipment and accessories. Calculation and implementation of appropriate exposure factors is employed for digital imaging systems, including both computed radiography and direct-capture radiography systems. Emphasis is placed on equipment manipulation (including mobile and stationary units), image receptors, ionization and exposure, beam intensity, and radiation protection. Radiographic image evaluation and critiques are performed to assist students in utilizing digital imaging systems.Usually HeldTue 12:00pm–2:50pm, Tue 8:00am–10:50am
