Our lab equipment includes two Heart Stride cardiac stress systems, two X-ray machines, two EKG machines, one Holter monitor, and several computers for research.
This equipment is enhanced by an extensive array of 3D heart models, poster/diagrams, and a library of medical books.

In our Mobile limited scope X-ray tech classes:
- The limited scope X-ray modules focus on the essential components of radiography so you can learn how to perform radiographs of the anatomy.
- The program also supplies the knowledge essential to performing X-ray examinations using the lowest doses of radiation to the patient while producing high-quality images for the physician or practitioner.
In our Mobile EKG tech classes:
- Our EKG modules focus on knowledge, safety, efficiency, accuracy, and patient care so you can learn the skills that employers may be looking for.(1)
- You’ll have an opportunity to actually wear a Holter monitor for a day. Once all the data has been collected, you can learn how to process that data so that a cardiologist can interpret it and provide a report.
- When you graduate, you should have the experience you need to interpret EKG data.
Our EKG and Limited Scope X-ray Tech school program can help you build your skills and confidence as you learn to use the tools of the trade and understand the job from both sides, as you assume the roles of technician and patient in our lab exercises.
