在這里學什么?
These professionals function as first assistants to the physician in medical practice, utilizing radiant energy, ionizing radiation (X-Ray), other forms of electro-magnetic energy, and sound waves for the imaging, diagnosis, and treatment of disease. Each distinct specialty option has its own educational criteria, accreditation and clinical training requirements.
The program prepares technologists for entry-level positions and also prepares the technologist who wishes to gain additional expertise. The radiologic technology curriculum and all program options are designed to meet the guidelines for accreditation and/or recognition by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists, the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology and the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography.
The Radiologic Sciences program offers a Bachelor of Science Degree with options in: diagnostic medical sonography, magnetic resonance imaging/computed tomography, radiation therapy technology, and radiology education/management.
To be considered for enrollment into the Radiologic Sciences program, prospective students must first obtain admission to the University. To be approved for entry into the major and professional sequences, applicants must submit additional application materials. This program admits a limited number of students based on specific selection criteria. Students may be selected for admission to the Radiologic Sciences program either as freshmen or sophomores. Freshmen will be evaluated on the basis of ACT/SAT scores and high school grade point average. Sophomores will be evaluated on the number of hours of college credit, college grade point average as calculated by SIU, college mathematics and science grades and the grade in anatomy. Anatomy, math and science courses must be completed prior to the following fall semester.
Accreditation guidelines place limits on the enrollment in this program. Students begin the professional sequence each fall only. This degree program requires the successful completion of clinical internships. In accordance with Federal and State guidelines, the clinical sites will require proof of the following: vaccination for measles, mumps, rubella, tetanus, TB, varicella (chicken pox), Hepatitis B, and influenza; current CPR card; and proof of completion of HIPAA and blood-borne pathogens training. Affiliation sites will also require students to undergo a criminal background check and drug screening.
RADIATION THERAPY TECHNOLOGY OPTION
Radiation therapy technologists assist radiation oncologists in all aspects of the administration of radiation therapy treatment; their primary responsibility consists of exposing specific areas of the patient’s body to prescribed doses of ionizing radiation. Radiation therapy technologists also provide appropriate patient care; this includes exercising judgment when administering treatment and adhering to the principle of radiation protection for the patient, self and others.
Within the radiation therapy specialization, each student must complete RAD 360, RAD 370, RAD 380, RAD 390, and RAD 400 with a "C" or higher and RAD 410, RAD 420, RAD 430, and RAD 440 with a "B" or higher. Any student not completing the above mentioned requirements, will not be allowed to graduate with the radiation therapy specialization and must re-apply for admission into the specialization. The student will also not be cleared to take the ARRT radiation therapy examination if they do not meet the minimum criteria through the program's online application process.
