Description
A practical guide to positioning patients for successful X-ray projections
Fundamentals of Radiographic Positioning and Anatomy offers student radiographers a user-friendly guide to all the most common X-ray examinations and the correct patient positioning for each projection. The result is an indispensable handbook that promises more practical value and usability than any current textbook on the market.
Fundamentals of Radiographic Positioning and Anatomy readers will also find:
Line-drawings and radiographic images throughout to illustrate patient positioning and resultant images
Coverage of anatomical regions including thoracic cavity, shoulder girdle, spine, and more
Simple, logical organisation to maximise utility
Fundamentals of Radiographic Positioning and Anatomy is ideal for students and educators in diagnostic radiography, as well as recently qualified radiographers looking for a handbook-sized reference.
