X-Ray Technology and Training
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.
Remington College's Medical Assisting with X-Ray Tech (Limited Scope) and EKG Program is available at the following campuses: Cleveland, OH; Cleveland West (North Olmsted) OH; Dallas, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Houston, TX (West Chase); Houston Southeast (Webster, TX); Little Rock, AR; Mobile, AL and Tampa, Florida.
EKG Technology and Training
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.
