I have only one change, replace anatomic with atomic in the course description. Thanks for giving physics the opportunity for input and best of luck on a successful Radiography program with the Mayo Clinic-Jax- UNF collaborative program! james James L. Garner, Ph.D.

I believe it represents what we agreed to. Please let me know if I have missed anything or if you have suggestions. Assuming this is OK, could you please write an to that effect that can attach to the APC rewrite? Is it possible to have this note by Thursday when the committee meets? I hope I am not pushing too much. Thank you! Pam Pamela S. Chally, PhD, RN

5 COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course provides the scientific concepts of velocity, acceleration, force, weight, momentum, work, power, heat, magnetism, energy and anatomic structure as it relates to radiologic technology. The course provides an explanation as to how electricity, magnetism, transformers, and rectification play a part in the components of x-ray circuitry. The x-ray tube structure and function is covered as well as its relationship to the x-ray circuit. The production of x-rays are explained and discussed. COURSE OBJECTIVES: - Review basic mathematics - Describe fundamental atomic structure as it relates to radiologic technology - Explain the processes of ionization and excitation as it relates to radiologic technology - Describe the electromagnetic spectrum as it pertains to gamma rays and x-rays - Describe the x-ray wavelength and frequency and how they are related to velocity - Explain the relationship of energy, wavelength and frequency as it relates to x-radiation - Explain the wave-particle duality phenomena and relate it to x-radiation - Identify the properties of x-rays - Describe the process of ionization and relate it to the interaction of matter in humans - Describe charged and uncharged forms of particulate radiation - Be able to list ionizing radiations as particulate or electromagnetic - Define the alpha particle and beta particle - Describe the production of bremsstrahlung and characteristic radiations as produced in the x-ray tube - Describe the conditions necessary to produce x-radiation as it relates to radiologic technology - Interpret the emission spectra for a tungsten target x-ray tube - Describe the changes to the emission spectra when kvp varies; when ma varies - Discuss relationships of wavelength and frequency to x- ray tube beam characteristics

6 - Define potential difference, current and resistance as it relates it to x-ray circuitry - Identify the general components and functions of the modern x-ray tube - Compare three phase, high frequency, and single phase x-ray generators in terms of x-radiation produced and efficiency - Discuss permanent installation of radiographic equipment in terms of purpose, components, types, and applications - Discuss mobile x-ray units in terms of purpose, components, types, and applications - Identify the components of diagnostic x-ray tubes - Explain the protocols used to extend x-ray tube life
