There are four pre-recorded videos in this self-directed learning package with regards to General Radiography:

  1. Artifact Management
  2. Quality Control
  3. Dose Management Strategies
  4. Understanding Radiation Risk and Communicating This To Patients

These videos are expected to be extremely relevant to help improve an MRT's practice. Quizzes are also included at the end of each video to evaluate your learning. 

Each video is approximately one (1) hour long and contains comprehension questions also. A minimum pass of 75% overall is required to obtain 4.0 Category A credits.
