Why doesn CSI emphasize nice to know content?
The CSI RT program concentrates on teaching the “essential” content contained in the ASRT radiography curriculum guide that is designed to prepare students to pass their ARRT radiography certification examination. Nice to know, content related to academic subjects, other imaging modalities (CT, MRI, etc.) and other interesting aspects of the profession are not emphasized to a great extent so as to maintain the shortest possible education and training duration. An assumption is held by CSI program officials that many of the nice to know aspects of the profession are revealed informally during the 24 month training period or they will become an integral part of the students repertoire after employment is secured as an ARRT Registered Technologist in Radiography. Concentrating on needed radiography related content and skills allows students to complete their education and training more efficiently and enter the workforce in the shortest time.
