AAS in Radiologic Technology
- Use algorithmic reasoning when determining exposure factors to obtain diagnostic quality radiographs with minimum radiation exposure.
- Practice “As Low As Reasonably Achievable” (ALARA) standards for the patient, self, and others.
- Practice radiation protection for the patient, self and others.
- Position the patient and imaging system to perform optimum radiographic examinations on patients throughout the lifespan.
- Use effective non-verbal, oral and written communication in patient care to anticipate and provide basic care and comfort.
- Exercise critical thinking and discretion in the technical performance of medical imaging procedures consistent with current standards of practice.
- Support cultural and social awareness when providing medical imaging procedures.
- Appraise patient information from multiple sources to perform medical imaging procedures consistent with the scope of practice.
- Demonstrate hands-on experience in medical imaging. Along with radiologic technology, you will participate in other areas of medical imaging, including computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and mammography.
