• Shield
• Marker in light field and the correct marker
• Right cassette
• You will have a repeat if you forget one of these
  3 things

Repeats

• If you have a repeat it will result in a 10
  deduction in your grade
• So instead of 100 being the highest 90 is the
  highest you can make.
• Each repeat for a single comp (wrist) will be a
  10 deduction
• 2nd repeat 80, 3rd dont pass fail lab.
• There are only 6 repeats allowed total.

  major things
• A score lower than 75
• And on your third reschedule, you can reschedule
  twice.

• The rest of the comp is divided into sections by
  points
• The first film correctly. That means if it placed
  correctly
• Second, correct distance (40SID)
• Third, tube is angled or not
• Forth, the CR is correct
• Collimation, Light on table, or if you have set
  it according to cassette size if it is the bucky,
  or you dont collimate at all

• Measures and set technical factors- I want to
  know a starting technique and if this patient is
  average size and if not how you will adjust
  tech.
• Patient position- is the patient part correctly
  centered to IR and if the view is correctly
  position to see the information needed.

• Equipment and handling- knowing your equipment.
• How everything works, all the locks and buttons.
• Lining up the light with the cassette.

10

• Confidence and ease- How well you know your views
  and long it takes to perform them.
• I can tell if you havent prepared for your comp.
  I will deduct points for lack of preparation and
  going over time limit

11

• If the comp is worth 30 points and you miss 3
  points on your comp. You will take and divide the
  number missed by the total possible
• 27/30 90 at of a possible 100
• You will receive a 90 for that comp

12

• The total for all comps will be 1900 points.
• I will then take and total all the grades from
  each comp together and divide by the total points
  to get your comp grade(65)
