In this course, students are introduced to concepts of radiography as they are applied to dentistry. Principles of radiation physics, health and safety factors, and quality control measures are examined. Students then use this knowledge to expose radiographic images in which they must then evaluate to determine if the image is diagnostically acceptable. The content of this course, when combined with DEN 128, satisfies the Administrative Rules of the Michigan Board of Dentistry educational requirements.
