Medical Radiographic Equipment & Quality Assurance

This course includes the principles of mechanics, electrostatics, electrodynamics, magnetism, electromagnetism, and circuitry. Students examine these concepts in detail and apply them to the design and operation of radiographic and fluoroscopic systems. Students also learn how radiologic quality assurance programs are developed and implemented and may include some hands-on demonstrations and/or assignments using the campus ionized radiographic unit to support the students' understanding of quality control test procedures.
