Many patients come to the imaging department in poor physical condition. This may be due to illness, injury, or a lengthy preparation for a diagnostic examination. When a person is in a weakened physical condition, physiologic reactions may not be as expected. Many abnormal physiologic reactions occur quickly and without warning and may be life-threatening if not recognized and treated immediately. This presentation examines the role of the radiologic technologist when there is a medical emergency in the imaging department. As the R.T., you may be the first member of the healthcare team to observe these acute emergencies; therefore, you must be able to recognize the symptoms and initiate the correct treatment.
