Train in Two Technologies That Help Patients: X-Ray and EKG

X-ray technology is more than just looking at the structure and shape of bones; it is an important way to see inside of the human body and to assist in the diagnosis of diseases, conditions, or injuries.

With the hands-on training provided in Remington College’s X-ray classes, you can participate in both classroom and laboratory study of X-ray procedures. Learn how to correctly operate x-ray equipment, position patients, and develop X-rays of their internal structure.

EKG (electrocardiogram) technology is used to test and measure a patient’s heart rate and rhythm. An EKG test is often performed before and during operations, during routine physicals, and on patients with a history of heart diseases or who are experiencing chest pains.

 

Remington College’s EKG classes include EKG laboratory study, clinical experiences, and classroom study in an effort to provide students with a real-world understanding of how EKG technology can assist in diagnosis of health and heart issues.
