Description
This course is designed to build upon the student's knowledge of imaging and exposure and enhance their skills as a student tech. Students will build upon their knowledge of how x-rays are created and manipulated with certain exposure values. Students will gain a better understanding of exposure techniques, digital imaging processes, automatic exposure control, and other post processing techniques. Students will practice these techniques during labs and will enhance their imaging skills.
Upon course completion, students will be able to:
Objectives:
• Explain scatter radiation and the purpose of grids.
• Describe the process of using AEC along with manual techniques and how it benefits their
patient.
• Demonstrate proficiency in the different imaging techniques and manipulation of techniques
increase during time spent in the lab.
• Use the specific formulas associated with image quality to make their images better.
