on basic patient care while in a Computed Tomography department, as well as the
history of CT and the components of a CT scanner. Additional topics include
patient history, vital signs, laboratory values, contrast agents (oral and
intravenous,) medical ethics, patient confidentiality, as well as research
contributors in CT, historical events, scanner generations, characteristics of
radiation, detectors and data acquisition system.
Corequisite: Graduation from an accredited Radiology, Nuclear Medicine or
Radiation Therapy Program.
Prerequisite: Registered Radiologic Technologist, Nuclear Medicine Technologist,
or a Radiation Therapy Technologist with the ARRT or Nuclear Medicine
Technology Certification Board (NMTCB.)
Offered: Fall, Spring and Summer.
