A step-by-step guide to radiographic theory and positioning, this text covers areas from patient handling, preparation and positioning to technical evaluation. The text explains how to position patients, evaluate the radiograph, identify artefacts, perform quality control tests on radiographic and darkroom equipment and perform special procedures using contrast media. There is a new chapter on alternate imaging technology encompassing topics such as ultrasound, nuclear imaging and computed tomography.
