Radiography
students can learn how to perform portable X-Rays with a real portable
unit. The students learn patient interaction, radiation
safety, patient safety, and radiographic skills in a very realistic
environment. Analog and Digital imaging is available. The Acute Care
Unit is shown.

Once the Radiography student has taken the portable chest
film, the cassette is taken back to the Radiology Department. If it
is an analog film it will be developed in the dark room. In this
case, a digital cassette was used. The film you see on the computer
screen is a digital image.

With a different patient a fractured leg is clearly shown.
This particular patient is a Laerdal Vital-sim with
interchangeable legs, one of which contains fractured "bones." He
was taken to the Radiology Department by a team of nursing and respiratory
students.
SIMS Medical also has the capacity to
create NBC (nuclear, biological, chemical) scenarios.

Sonography students learn anatomy, pathology,
and scanning routines on a highly sophisticated Ultrasim computer
based simulator. A wide range of normal and abnormal exams can be performed for
abdominal, Ob-Gyn, and vascular studies.
The student has to decide what images to create, to record, measure and present for
"reading" to the faculty.
The Ultrasim is approved for Continuing Education
Units.
