RADIOGRAPHY
221
The Radiography curriculum prepares the graduate to be a radiographer, a skilled health care professional who uses radiation to produce images of the human body.
Course work includes clinical rotations to area health care facilities, radiographic ex- posure, image processing, radiographic procedures, physics, pathology, patient care and man- agement, radiation protection, quality assurance, anatomy and physiology, and radiobiology. Graduates of accredited programs are eligible to apply to take the American Reg-
istry of Radiologic Technologists’ national examination for certi cation and registration
as medical radiographers. Graduates may be employed in hospitals, clinics, physicians’ of ces, medical laboratories, government agencies, and industry.
The SCC radiography program is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT). Accreditation of an educational program provides students, as graduates, assurance that the educational program will provide them with the requisite knowledge, skills, and values to competently perform the range of professional responsibilities expected by potential employers nationwide. It also assures they will be eligible for licensure in each of the 50 states. By requiring programs to teach the entire curriculum developed by the professional society, the American Society of Radiologic Technology, it also assures students they will have the foundation knowledge to continue to develop as professionals in the various elds of the radiation sciences.
