Following completion of Procedures II, the student is able to perform all routine
radiographic examinations. The student must integrate concepts from radiation
protection and exposure technique to produce optimal quality diagnostic radiographs
with minimal radiation exposure to the patient.

COURSE GOALS:
1. Present anatomy and anatomical landmarks related to positioning for radiographic
examinations of all parts of the body.
2. Give instruction in all routine radiographic examinations, including classroom
instruction, clinical demonstration, and clinical practice.
3. Present information regarding pertinent patient care and radiation safety
considerations for all radiographic procedures.
4. Provide instruction and practice for effective radiographic critique of technical and
positioning considerations.
5. Closely correlate classroom instruction with the student’s clinical rotation
assignments and competency testing.
All students are responsible for attaining competencies through completion of the
following course requirements:
-attending class
-reading assigned chapters in texts and supplemental readings
-participating in discussions with the instructor and classmates
-completing all assignments
-completing all written and performance (laboratory) tests
-participating in all laboratory activities
GRADING PROCEDURES
Unit tests will be given periodically upon completion of each unit. All assignments will be
averaged and given the value of one unit test. A minimum grade of 80% is required on
all unit tests. A student making a grade lower than 80% on any unit test will be required
to take a comprehensive final exam unless a grade of A is maintained. Students who
have passed all unit tests or students who maintain an A average prior to taking the final
exam will be exempt from taking the final exam for a grade. The final exam will count
25% of the final grade. As with all RAD TECH major courses, the grading scale is as
follows:
GRADE
A
B
C
D
F
SCORE
93-100
86-92

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
Students in this course will be expected to comply with the policies stated in the ECC
Radiography Program Student Handbook and the ECC College Catalog. Honesty in
all academic work is expected of every student. This means giving one’s own answers in
all class work, quizzes and examinations without help from any source not approved by
the instructor. Written material is to be the student’s original composition. Appropriate
credit must be given for outside sources from which ideas, language, or quotations are
derived. You are expected to do your own work in this course.
Students with Disabilities
ECC welcomes students with disabilities and is committed to supporting them as they attend college. If a student has a
disability (visual, aural, speech, emotional/psychiatric, orthopedic, health, or learning), s/he may be entitled to some
accommodations, service, or support. While the College will not compromise or waive essential skill requirements in
any course or degree, students with disabilities may be supported with accommodations to help meet these
requirements.
The laws in effect at college level state that a person does not have to reveal a disability; but if support is needed,
documentation of the disability must be provided. If none is provided, the college does not have to make any
exceptions to standard procedures.
All students are expected to comply with the Student Code of Conduct and all other college procedures as stated in the
current College Catalog.
