Course Listings 2018-2019 258 ICE268 LAB 2 Credits LAB 12 Periods MRI Advanced Imaging Practicum Advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) clinical practicum is for those certified by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) in radiography, radiation therapy, or sonography, or certified by ARRT of the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board (NMTCB) in Nuclear Medicine. Use of correct magnetic resonance imaging instrumentation, protocol implementation and positioning techniques. Apply MRI safety, quality control procedures and effective patient care and communication skills. ICE268 may be repeated for a total of four (4) credit hours. Prerequisites: Currently enrolled in the Magnetic Resonance Imaging program. ICE269 3 Credits 3 Periods Magnetic Resonance Procedure Protocols Imaging techniques related to the central nervous system (CNS), neck, thorax, musculoskeletal system and abdominopelvic regions. Specific clinical application, available coils and use. Considerations in scan sequences, specific choices in protocols including slice thickness, phase direction, flow compensation, and positioning criteria. Anatomical structures and plane that best demonstrates anatomy. Signal characteristics of normal and abnormal structures. Prerequisites: [(Certified by American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) in Radiography or in Radiation Therapy), or (certified by ARRT or the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board (NMTCB) in Nuclear Medicine), or certified by the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) or (Radiography or Nuclear Medicine student), or registry eligible graduate] and ICE233 and ICE264 with a grade of C or higher, or permission of Instructor. ICE272 3 Credits 3 Periods Magnetic Resonance Pathology Common pathologies found in magnetic resonance imaging, their appearance with various imaging protocols including all commonly imaged body systems and areas. Case studies and images of the pathologies to reinforce the lectures. Prerequisites: [(Certified by American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) in Radiography or in Radiation Therapy), or (certified by ARRT or the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board (NMTCB) in Nuclear Medicine), or certified by the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) or (Radiography or Nuclear Medicine student), or registry eligible graduate] and ICE233 and ICE229 with a grade of C or higher, or permission of Instructor. ICE273 3 Credits 3 Periods Computed Tomography Pathology Common diseases diagnosed using computed tomography (CT) imaging. Appearance of pathology on CT to include: physiology, etiology, indications for exam, findings, and diagnosis. Case studies, images, and descriptions of pathologic conditions in various body systems will be presented in alignment with CT certification guidelines published by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT).
