The X-ray Technician plays an important role as a member of the health care team in a physician's office or clinic. Theory and practical application in the fundamentals of anatomy and physiology are taught as well as an introduction to specific disease processes and trauma which affect the various body systems, with emphasis placed on the respiratory and skeletal systems. Students are certified to perform Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). In addition, students engage in "hands-on" training in the X-ray lab. Students study theory and concepts of radiographic physics and are taught patient care procedures as well as basic office administrative procedures. This program equips the graduate with the skills and knowledge necessary to meet the varied and expanding requirements of an entry level position.
