RAD 7101 - Diagnostic Radiology
(4 cr; H-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)
The student gains an appreciation for the radiologic examination, its capabilities, limitations, and hazards, and will be offered a review of fundamental physical and basic science aspects of the subject. The student learns how to work with technical and other auxiliary personnel. Emphasis is on how to approach radiologic diagnosis and work with the clinician in a radiologic consultation service. There is observation and participation in daily interpretation of films, fluoroscopy, and special procedures.
RAD 7104 - Externship: Diagnostic Radiology--Regions Medical Center
(1 cr [max 15]; Prereq-enrolled med; H-N or Audit; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer; may be repeated for 15 credits)
lll
RAD 7110 - Radiology Research
(2 cr [max 8]; H-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer; may be repeated for 16 credits; may be repeated 2 times)
After consultation with staff, the student performs well-defined, radiologic-related research projects adjusted to the student's level of experience and interest.
RAD 7140 - Special Problems: Roentgenology
(1 cr [max 15]; Prereq-enrolled med; H-N or Audit; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer; may be repeated for 15 credits)

N/A
RAD 7600 - Acting Internship in Radiology
(4 cr; H-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)
Acting Internship in Radiology is to be taken after the Diagnostic Radiology elective. Students will function similar to a first year radiology resident, dictating radiology reports, and performing procedures under supervision. Course sign up is by approval.
RAD 7601 - Analog Radiology
(4 cr; Prereq-Rad 7101 and a written statement of intent ; H-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer)
This elective is focused on the FILM archive of Howard Ansel, MD. During a career spanning 4 decades, Dr. Ansel generated an impressive collection of high-quality radiographic studies, primarily gastrointestinal. While radiology has trended towards cross-sectional imaging, a thorough understanding of 2D radiographic anatomy is still an essential part of image interpretation. The ideal student is planning for a career in diagnostic radiology. Familiarity with this archive will provide him or her with a tremendous head start in understanding the radiographic appearance of disease. The student will be provided with a workspace and a lightbox to review the FILMS in the VA Nuclear Medicine division.
RAD 7777 - From Medical Imaging to 3D Printing & Virtual Reality
(4 cr; P-N only; offered Every Fall, Spring & Summer; may be repeated for 8 credits; may be repeated 2 times)
An introduction to utilizing medical imaging data for 3D printing and virtual reality as applied to healthcare.
RAD 8200 - Nuclear Medicine
