Applied Radiography

What it covers

Diagnostic radiography requires a detailed knowledge of anatomy, patient positioning, the equipment used, radiation safety and quality assurance, technique, and patient care. This course is the first in a series of Diagnostic radiography courses and builds on the fundamental theories of Medical Radiation 1 and 2 to concentrate on application of knowledge to practice. You will need to gain practical skills in order to become a competent radiographer and this course provides you with the underpinning theory and practice. This course is designed to develop and apply the principles of patient positioning, exposure factors, and image critique for various anatomical sites. At this level you are expected to engage with the literature base in order to support your work.
