SECTION II: INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE

Course Objectives & Content

Course Objectives:

Introducing the technical features of the tools and equipment used in radiology departments, making the necessary maintenance and gaining the necessary knowledge and skills for the detection and elimination of the failures.

Course Content:

Within the scope of the course, the standards in the field of radiology are examined, and maintenance, repair, quality control tests and calibration definitions and processes are examined in biomeidcal devices. X-ray formation, X-ray device, electrical circuit assembly and possible failure conditions are examined. MRI, CT, Ultrasonography, Mammography, Fluoroscopy devices, device elements are examined, malfunctions and repairs, maintenance plans are processed. In addition, Preparing Cassettes and Ranfans for Radiography, Maintenance and Repair of Cassettes and Ranforts, Structure and Properties of X-Ray Films
Introduction of Film Types. Film Bath Technique, Modern Bath and Printing Systems include artifacts and their removal on films.
