Advanced Medical Imaging

A course designed wherein students will apply knowledge to real life situations in cooperation with the clinical education site and a faculty advisor to maximize learning experiences. A planned clinical experience is provided which gives the student the opportunity to demonstrate clinical skills in performing competency examinations in accordance to ARRT specifications in advanced modalities such as MRI, CT, Mammography, CVI, etc. These skills should include analysis, synthesis and evaluation of the examinations performed. Competency evaluations are based on ARRT standards for the specific modality in which the student is applying for advanced certification.

This course is focused on the preparing the student to sit for the ARRT Computed Tomography (CT) exam.

This course is an exploration of the magnetic resonance imaging techniques of the Torso and Limbs - abdomen, pelvis, and musculoskeletal system to include patient positioning, protocols, pulse sequences, and pathology.

This course explores advanced imaging techniques and new technologies in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

This course is a study of the role of the technologist in dealing with radiation safety, contrast media administration, and emergency procedures during CT examinations. Image quality artifacts are also discussed along with quality control (QC) tests and QC programs for CT.

This course is an introduction to complex computed tomography (CT) procedures and protocols. Associated pathology and a general overview of cross sectional anatomy will be applied per body module.

This course is a study of the human anatomy as viewed using cross-sectional images. This class is also used in imaging modalities like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and ultra sound (US).
