BELLIN COLLEGE CATALOG2011-12RS 207L: RADIOGRAPHIC PROCEDURES II – LAB - 1 creditThis course includes more complex positions. Positions will be demonstrated in a radiographic suite. Studentswill practice the radiographic position/projections using actual radiographic and mobile equipment. Studentswill be required to correctly demonstrate the positions in a testing environment.Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing in radiologic science, all previously required courses.RS 208: IMAGE ANALYSIS II - 3 creditsThis course is a continuation of Image Analysis I. It is designed to provide the student with the skills necessaryto recognize the difference between diagnostic and unacceptable radiographic images. The student’s ability toevaluate diagnostic image quality is the final objective as well as the changes needed to produce an acceptablediagnostic image.Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing in radiologic science, all previously required courses.RS 210: ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY IN IMAGING SCIENCES - 3 creditsThis course presents human structure and function as it relates to medical imaging technologies. Each bodysystem's application to medical imaging will be discussed to include cross-sectional imaging, diagnostic imagingmodalities and their appropriateness for studying each body system. A consistent theme in this course will bethe debate about structure and function in terms of cellular design and physiology. Human anatomy specific tomedical imaging will be emphasized as well as common pathologies, and radiology’s role in diagnosing disease.Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing in radiologic science; all previously required courses.RS 111C: CLINICAL RADIOGRAPHY II - 3 creditsThis course provides the student with the necessary clinical education that is needed in the actual practice ofradiography. The student will continue to master the skills in learning the functions and procedures performedduring radiographic examinations in a hospital/clinic setting. The student will also continue to master therequired clinical competencies under direct supervision and will perform exams mastered in the previoussemester under indirect supervision.Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing in radiologic science; all previously required courses.RS 301: RADIOGRAPHIC PATHOLOGY - 3 creditsThis course acquaints the future radiographer with some of the basic radiologic interpretive techniques inmedical imaging evaluation. Various disease processes will be discussed and their radiologic manifestations.The general intent of this course is to give radiographers an appreciation of the challenge radiologists have inimage interpretation and the vital role medical imaging professionals play in achieving optimum image quality.Students will present classroom presentations on a variety of selected topics. A short clinical experience sittingwith a Board-certified radiologist may be provided.Prerequisite(s): Junior standing in radiologic science; all previously required courses.RS 302: ANCILLARY IMAGING AND CROSS-SECTIONAL ANATOMY - 2 creditsThis course introduces the student to various imaging modalities within a contemporary medical imagingdepartment. These areas include cardiovascular imaging to include cardiac catheterization, CT scanning, MRIscanning, radionuclide imaging, ultrasonography, breast imaging, DEXA scanning and radiation oncology.Additionally the special studies of venography, arthrography and myelography will be covered from aradiography perspective. Cross-sectional anatomy will be presented as it relates to ultrasound, CT and MRIimaging.Prerequisite(s): Junior standing in radiologic science; all previously required support courses.81
