I just want to say Thank you. I watched all your videos; they are so helpful and easy to understand. I passed Xray board exam last year with good grade.
Hey Megan thanks for the videos! I noticed for the CR plate layers, the 2 images are somewhere different. The one on top goes inferiorly from phosphor to conductor to support to light shielding (reflective) layer. And the one on the bottom goes from phosphor to reflective to conductor to protective to light shielding layer. Which one is more accurate to the boards?
Yes, I think I mention that in the video. The people who create the ARRT questions know this is a variance. Don't stress this! I teach the RTBC set up since they are the most up to date. Just know basics about what the layers do, mainly the most important one is the phosphor or active layer!
@ awesome thank you I must not have been listening when you mentioned it. Thank you for all you do! I’m taking the boards in May and I’m loving your free resources. I’m going to purchase RTBC in a few weeks and hold it for 6 months while I study for the boards. I also have the mosbys book (just don’t have access to the online because the book is a hand-me-down). I also have the Lange QandA book. It’s wicked in depth and a little more intimidating so I’ll tackle those at some point!
Thank you very much for the great lecture. After watching your lecture, one question arose. If optical fibers arranged in series are used to collect blue light generated from IP, does noise occur due to loss of light in the gap between optical fibers?
I’m retaking the registry in about a month and a half for the third time. I’ve been just a few points from passing. I’m just so scared. I’ve learned a lot from your videos. Do you have any other helpful tools?
I am a little confused on where the Photomultiplier and ADC comes into play. Is this something in the IP reader? After going through the steps of how CR works, I am confused where this is at...
The PMT is inside the reader. The imaging plate is being read with the red laser inside the reader. It emits the blue light which is collected by the PMT. It converts the light to the electrical signal before sending it to the ADC. The ADC is a component that takes an electrical signal and makes it a digital one, this is how we see the image produced on the monitor.
@@meaghanpiretti7340 Ahhh. Okay. I get that! Ugh. What would I do without your help? Thanks so much! SO many things to remember :( Feeling discouraged but your videos are helping. TY again.
thank you Meaghan ur vedioes are extremely beautiful. can u plz tell me which material is used of barium flurohalide which u mantion on phosphorus .and also if u can explain certain registary questions it would help alot thank you
The phosphor layer of the CR plate is a photostimulable phosphor. It comes from the fluorohalide family. With any x-ray equipment you should know the parts, the order they go in, and what job they do!
Hi Dani, I understand this can be confusing since different sources have varied information. Personally I have found radtech bootcamp to be the most up to date source. Do you know what source your professor is using?
Thank you SO much for these videos. I watched every single video and passed my board exam today!
Yay! Congrats RT R! Thanks for the message!
Thank you for your videos! They’re so easy to understand and memorize, I watched your videos religiously before my boards last week and passed!
Thank you for sharing this with me! I love these messages! So happy that my lectures helped you along the way. Congrats RT!
What else did you use to study for the boards ?
literally the best resource to review important specs info!! to the point, easy to watch and understand.. THANK YOU SOO MUCH !!!
So glad it was helpful for you!!

Your videos helped me pass my boards!! Thank you so much!
Wow! I am so happy that I was helpful to you! Congratulations RT R!
I love the videos 🙌 taking my registry soon !
Thanks! I am wishing you so much luck!!
Thank you for your effort to help students!

@@destinieh07 Hang in there! It is a lot to learn, but so worth it in the end with a great career! Take it one day at a time!
@@meaghanpiretti7340 Thank you!!! Test in a week, not feeling ready but have been putting it off for over 2 months. Appreciate all of your help. :)
Wama thank you so much

HI Meagan would please explain AEC?
I need help! thank you
So my teacher has a different order than what you have for the imaging plate. She has
Protective
Phosphor
Reflective
Conductive
Support
Backing
So I don't know which order to memorize them in.

@@meaghanpiretti7340 im honestly not sure. But studying wise I also have the Lange flash cards and the names of the layers are different.
Thanks 🙏🏻
