Bachelor of Applied Science in Radiography

Radiography utilizes ionizing radiation (X-rays) to obtain detailed images of human anatomy for the purpose of diagnosing and treating a wide variety of medical conditions. Radiographers are vital members of the healthcare team, who work in hospitals and clinics performing imaging procedures including:

General imaging (x-rays of chest, abdomen, skeletal system, etc.)
CT scans (highly detailed 3-D images of the body)
Mammography (images to detect breast cancer)
Mobile imaging (imaging performed bedside on very ill patients)
Fluoroscopy (dynamic moving images acquired for special procedures and in operating rooms)
The Radiography program at UPEI is a unique learning opportunity that combines hands-on learning in hospitals across Prince Edward Island with in-depth study of various subjects including human anatomy, pathology, medical physics, and patient care.
