LX1070 - Simulated Practical Radiography

This course is also available through Online Learning

Students will complete seven weeks of simulated general radiography preparing them for their upcoming clinical experience. The course utilizes simulated patients, including manikins, x-ray phantoms, and fellow students and focuses on skill development in radiographic positioning, image recognition (normal and abnormal) and equipment operation, assisting the student to correlate theory learnt in previous courses to patient situations. Students will be required to demonstrate their ability to prioritize, organize and implement procedures in general radiography including, routine, pathology and trauma skills necessary to image skeletal (including skull), and respiratory, digestive and urinary anatomy.  Professional practice will be stressed to provide patient care while emphasizing safety. Students will be expected to adhere to and provide radiation protection, optimize image quality and utilize a quality assurance program with special attention to performing quality control procedures and mitigating potential risks.
