Course Descriptions
Medical Imaging Technology
- RADI-R 404 Sectional Imaging Anatomy (3 cr.) An in-depth study of sectional anatomy pertinent to ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Standard transverse, parasaggital, and coronal planes are included, using images from all three imaging modalities. A discussion of technique, artifact, and pathology-related alterations of cross-sectional anatomic appearances is included.
- RADI-R 407 Seminar (1-5 cr.) Individual and group study focusing upon advances in medical imaging.
- RADI-R 408 Topics (.5-4 cr.) Study of selected topics in radiologic sciences. May be repeated for credit if topics differ.
- RADI-R 451 Medical Imaging Theory (3 cr.) P: Math, Physics, RADI R404. Lectures on the physical principles of advanced imaging modalities, including computed tomography, magnetic resonance, ultrasound, and interventional imaging. Image evaluation of normal studies is stressed. Student presentations and journal reports are required.
- RADI-R 452 Medical Imaging Applications (3 cr.) P: RADI R451. Lectures on and evaluations of the computed tomographic, magnetic resonance, ultrasound, and interventional images as applied to pathologic conditions of specific body areas. Student presentations and journal reports are required.
- RADI-R 481 Clinical Practicum: Interventional Imaging (.5-8 cr.) P: RADI R404, RT(R). Clinical experience in the performance of interventional imaging studies.
- RADI-R 482 Clinical Practicum: Computed Tomography (.5-8 cr.) P: RADI R404, RT(R). Clinical experience in the performance of computed tomographic imaging studies.
