The premise behind the creation of this partnership is to provide
imaging professionals with access to high quality yet affordable
continuing education units (CEUs). Please feel free to share this
with your colleagues and have them contact John Fleming at (727)
796-0397 for information regarding the submission of these 12
CEUs for credit with the Florida Department of Health and the
American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. Thanks for your
support and be sure to look for additional courses to be developed
in the near future by Three Phase CEUs and SCS Continuing
Education..
,Course Abstract & Objectives:
The objective of this home study course is to provide the learner
with a computer based tutorial that will provide them with the
means to learn selected topics in radiographic anatomy, imaging
and radiobiology. After completion of this home study course, the
participant will be able to correctly label the radiographic anatomy
of the lower extremity, identify the salient characteristics of
radiographic intensifying screens, identify the salient properties of
automatic exposure control (AEC) devices, acquire a working
knowledge of diagnosing radiographic artifacts, acquire salient
information regarding general cell biology in order to build a
foundation for learning how ionizing radiation affects the human
body, have a working knowledge of the most common
radiologic units, and acquire a working knowledge of radiation
protection for the radiographer and the patient. A 100 question
mastery test will be administered at the end of the tutorial to ensure
that competency of the material has been achieved.
