Course Details

Program:  Bachelor of Science in Radiological Imaging Techniques (BRIT)
Level: Graduation
Duration: 3.5 Years

Overview

This course provides knowledge of diagnosing & treating various diseases and clinical disorders with the help of image techniques such as X-rays, ultrasounds, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography etc. Diagnostic radiography is the specialization of medicine that uses the images of X-ray & other imaging techniques to diagnose the disease & injury of patients.

Programme Educational Objectives:

After completion of this course, BRIT graduates would be able to work as trained Medical Imaging Technologists.                                               

A BRIT degree holder can work as a radiologic technologist in diagnostic imaging centers, super specialty hospitals, government and private hospitals.                                                       

Self-employment opportunities are also available as graduates in this field are aware and conversant with the latest sophisticated modern imaging modalities such as CT scan, MRI and PET scan.

Would be able to undertake mammography, CT scan and MRI procedures independently.                        

Can assist in specialized radiological procedures.                                          

Ability to handle all radiological and imaging equipment independently and do the image processing.            

Would comply with radiation protection and safety measures and participate in quality assurance procedures.                                                                   

Would be able to integrate knowledge of clinical care, communication and ethics in a hands-on manner in a professional healthcare setting.         

Have basic knowledge of all pre and para clinical subjects of medical sciences.                                                                                        

Have advanced knowledge of all radio imaging techniques.                                                                   

Distinctiveness of research and audit processes and their function.                                                            

Can work as a diagnostic radiographer, radiation therapy educator and radiology instructor.
