Radiography

Description

Once limited to X-ray photography, radiography has bred a number of dynamic subspecialties such as magnetic resonance imaging, computerized tomography, and mammography. This program goes inside the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics system to discover what MRI scans and CAT scans are, to observe how they are done, and to learn what skills are needed to be a successful technician. An MRI scan on a young woman's brain and a CAT scan on the upper body of another young woman are performed, and the results are interpreted and discussed.
