Biomedical Engineering Technology graduates need to understand the basics of servicing x-ray systems. This x-ray Systems course introduces the principles of x-ray physics and the process of x-ray generation used in medical imaging. The power delivery systems required in a radiographic x-ray generator are detailed and explained. Proper safety codes and practices will be implemented while performing service tests on an x-ray system to evaluate system performance. Students will disassemble and reassemble parts of an x-ray system and calibrate the system to manufacturers specifications.
