Radiography Simulation Module

This module illustrates the process of preparing for and obtaining X-rays of the abdomen and pelvis. The online simulator includes three distinct patient scenarios that necessitate radiographic imaging of the abdomen and pelvis. In preparation for clinical work, it provides students and practitioners with the knowledge, cognitive skills, and a secure practice environment necessary to perform these procedures accurately. This includes both practice and test modes. If you are preparing for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists® (ARRT) registry exams, this module is an excellent choice.



Indicate the conditions that necessitate radiographic procedures of the abdomen and pelvic girdle.Describe and employ the terminology of radiographic positioning.Detail the anatomical features of the pelvic girdle and abdomen.

Discuss the protocols for the abdomen and pelvic girdle.For each projection of the abdomen and pelvic girdle, provide a description of the anatomical landmarks and positioning criteria.Discuss the radiographic requirements for the abdomen and pelvic girdle in the context of pediatric patients and trauma.Examine the radiographs for quality and proper positioning criteria.Examine the pathology of the pelvic girdle and abdomen.The SIMTICS modules are all web-based and user-friendly. This implies that they are accessible at any time, provided that the learner has an internet connection. Other than a computer mouse for simulation purposes, no specialized hardware or equipment is necessary. Each SIMTICS module provides a comprehensive examination of a single procedure or subject.
