RADIOLOGIC
TECHNOLOGY FACILITIES
The Mesa State College Radiologic Technology Program
offices, classroom, and laboratory facility are located in Medesy
Hall on the Mesa State campus. The building is easily accessible
to both students and faculty through entrances located at the
east and west ends of the building. These entrances are wheelchair
accessible. Faculty offices are located in Medesy 149, 151, and
160. The majority of radiologic technology classes are held in
Medesy Hall Room 172. The tiered lecture hall provides seating
for approximately forty students. Two banks of four view boxes
are permanently mounted on each side of the room. Adjacent to
the lecture hall is an energized laboratory. The laboratory can
accommodate a maximum of seven students for demonstration purposes.
In 1997 the laboratory was redesigned and new radiographic equipment
was installed. The laboratory features a high frequency generator,
a heavy duty table with a four way float table top, and a vertically
mounted cassette holder. The energized laboratory is in compliance
with all Colorado Department of Health safety requirements and
regulations. The x-ray tube assembly and generator are inspected
annually. Other permanently installed equipment includes two banks
of five view boxes and Frose anatomical charts. The laboratory
also houses two fully articulated human skeletons, one disarticulated
skeleton, a full body x-ray phantom, a breast phantom, an anatomical
torso model with removable parts, and miscellaneous skull and
vertebral components. The laboratory also hosts a wide assortment
of cassettes, stationary grids, various positioning aids, and
miscellaneous medical equipment. The darkroom contains a Konica
SRX-101 cold water automatic film processor. A film storage bin
and quality control devices are also available. The Radiologic
Technology Program also provides materials such as radiographic
film, processor and processing chemicals to provide the student
with a full educational experience.
