MRT 163 — MRT 163
Allows students to continue gaining proficiency in procedures and positions, and gives them the opportunity to put into practice radiographic exposure principles presented in the first two semesters of the program. The scope of the procedures expands to include cranial and trauma radiography, and procedures performed on the panorex unit. A Carm in -service is presented, and students continue supervised participation in surgical and non -surgical procedures. Students perform competency testing in procedures such as hip, forearm/elbow, shoulder, lower leg, erect and decub abdomen, c-spine or t-spine, digital fluoro, and UGI series. To verify continued competency, students are “retested” over two competency exams successfully passed in previous semesters.
