Course Description
This course provides a review of radiography procedures of the thorax and abdomen. Normal anatomy, landmarks, vasculature, and pathological considerations of the anatomical structures of the thorax and abdomen will be presented. Radiography procedures commonly performed on the thorax and abdominal region will be covered along with general imaging considerations and protocols. The role of administration of a contrast agent in gastrointestinal and genitourinary studies is also included. Patient comfort and safety are foremost considerations when performing radiography procedures of the thorax and abdomen. Further, it is the radiographer’s responsibility to ensure that the imaging protocols for each procedure are optimized to produce the highest image quality possible while keeping the radiation dose to the patient as low as reasonably achievable.
This course is based on the book Radiography Procedures of the Abdomen & Thorax by Jeana Fleitz, M.Ed., RT(R)(M)(ARRT)™. The book/PDF is 139 pages long and 8.5 x 11 inches in size. This book has 12 pt font and 1.5 line spacing.
The test has 48 multiple choice and true/false questions
