RSTI: Principles of Servicing Diagnostic X-Ray Systems
Introduction
Principles of Servicing Diagnostic X-Ray Systems is a skills development program that teaches the new service professional the cognitive skills necessary to understand the X-ray system and its applications in the medical community. The program is divided into six major learning units:
- Introduction to radiography
- Radiation safety
- The production of X-rays
- Formation of the X-ray image
- Image receptor technologies
- PACS troubleshooting basics
The course contains lecture, demonstration,and hands-on training, which teach participants proper operation, radiation safety, image quality assessment, and global understanding of the X-ray system.
Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to perform first level service on the radiographic system.
