MIS 300Advanced Patient Care for Imaging Professionals3
This course examines advanced patient care competencies in medical imaging. Topics include patient education and communication strategies, patient assessment for procedural readiness, and medication administration within the technologist’s scope of practice. Emergency response responsibilities are addressed by differentiating between Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) principles, consistent with ARRT standards, and by recognizing cardiac rhythms during imaging procedures. Documentation, professional accountability, and patient-centered care for diverse populations are integrated throughout the course. hours. This course is offered in an online format. Summer II.
This course will provide a basic overview of the skills and concepts necessary to perform Bone Densitometry examinations in the clinical setting. It is designed to provide education for healthcare professionals currently performing or planning to perform Bone Densitometry Examinations. Quality management, equipment operation, radiation protection, patient care, procedures, protocols and specialized imaging techniques will be discussed to provide the student with a firm knowledge base of 180
This course addresses pharmacology principles related to contrast media and medications used in medical imaging, including drug classification, actions, and side effects. Emphasis is placed on the imaging technologist’s role and scope of practice in medication administration and venipuncture, in evaluating patient responses, and in adhering to safety and professional standards. Healthcare literacy concepts are integrated to support patient understanding and safe imaging practice. hours. This course is offered in an online format. Spring and Summer II.
This course offers a comprehensive overview of mammography, covering key topics such as patient care assessment, breast anatomy, physiology, and pathology. It will also explore breast imaging procedures, including positioning for breast implants and strategies for imagining patients with special needs. The course will examine the operation of digital mammography equipment, image production, informatics, and quality assurance. Additionally, digital breast tomosynthesis instrumentation and procedures will be discussed. Direct instruction will align with the content requirements for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists’ post-primary examination. Clinical hours are included to ensure completion of required competencies. hours. This course is offered in an online format and includes a clinical component. Spring and by request.
This course examines quality management and quality control principles within the imaging sciences. Course content emphasizes evaluation of quality management frameworks, quality control testing procedures, and accreditation standards across imaging modalities. Students review foundational physical principles of image production in diagnostic imaging, mammography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine as they relate to image quality and system performance. Federal and state laws regulating the operation of medical imaging equipment are interpreted in the context of departmental compliance. Best practices for quality control data collection are addressed to support evidence-based decision-making, and students implement quality improvement tools to address patient care-related problems in imaging environments. hours. This course is offered in an online format. Spring.
MIS 401Information Systems Management for Imaging Sciences3
This course examines imaging informatics principles as applied to clinical medical imaging practice. Content includes imaging information systems such as PACS, RIS, and HIS; digital image workflows across imaging modalities; and the impact of the PACS administrator’s role on imaging technologist workflow. Standards and regulations related to patient information management, including Joint Commission requirements and HIPAA compliance, are also addressed. hours. This course is offered in an online format. Fall.
