SCI
5 courses with the subject SCI, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
This course covers basic calculations in detail, methods of contouring, beam modifying devices and immobilization aids. The student is instructed in all aspects of treatment planning to include contouring, hand- drawn isodose summations and calculations of dose. This is augmented by computerized treatment planning in the clinical area. 3 lecture hours per week. 3.00 This course will introduce the students to the cross-sectional and topographic anatomy of the specific body systems and will discuss the relevance to the practice of radiation therapy. 2 lecture hours per week. 2.00 The student therapist engages in the daily activities of the radiation oncology department while participating in treatment unit, simulation, mold room and patient care rotations. 8 hours per day, 4 days per week 3.00 Continuation of Technical Radiation Therapy II. The technical aspects of emerging radiation therapy techniques and adjuvant therapies are discussed. 1.5 lecture/lab hours per week. 1.00 A research course for students designed to demonstrate understanding of the malignant process and its control. Students will be required to research a randomly selected malignancy, write a paper and give an oral presentation on the subject to their classmates and the radiation therapy program faculty. Additionally, they will write a reflection paper of the experience and how it will impact the practice of their profession and their patients. 3 hours per week. 3.00 Sequential continuation of Radiation Physics I, dealing with quantity and quality of ionizing radiation. Physical concepts of radiation dosimetry are covered in detail as well as methods of calibration of treatment equipment. 3 lecture hours per week. 3.00 The student therapist engages in the daily activities of the radiation oncology department while participating in treatment unit, simulation, dosimetry and brachytherapy rotations. 8 hours per day, 3 days per week. 3.00 This course covers dosimetry of complex treatment planning and brachytherapy. Topics include: 3- D treatment planning, TBI, electron beam IMRT and irregular field calculations. 2 lecture hours per week. 2.00 This course will discuss the development and implementation of quality control programs in providing quality patient care. 15 lecture hours. 1.00 The student therapist engages in the daily activities of the radiation oncology department while participating in quality assurance, quality management, advanced treatment techniques, simulation and brachytherapy rotations. 7.5 hours per day, 4 days per week 4.00 ch This course will cover the physics of advanced radiation oncology procedures. Topics include: HDR brachytherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, TBI, CT simulation, conformal radiation therapy and advanced treatment techniques. 2 lecture hours per week. 2.00 py A review of radiation therapy concepts included in the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists certifying examination. Concepts covered include: radiation protection, quality assurance, treatment planning and delivery, and patient care, management and education. Students are required to successfully complete a comprehensive examination in radiation therapy to complete their program of study as well as submit a portfolio of their work. 3 lecture hours per week, 8 weeks. 2.00 This course is designed to make the student aware of the environment in which we live and its impact on the quality of life. Human influence on the environment will also be examined. 3 lecture hours per week. Not accepted as credit towards the biology major. 3.00 An introduction to the principles of physics, chemistry and biology, illustrated with laboratory experiences and examples from the field of forensics. Emphasis is on the scientific foundations of forensic investigation. 2 lecture hours and 2 laboratory hours per week. Not accepted as credit towards the biology major. 3.00
