Overview
- Bulleted step-by-step instructions show how to position the patient and body part for frequently requested radiography projections.
- More than 150 projections are each presented in a two-page spread, and include information on patient position, part position, central ray angulation, collimation, KVp values, and a photograph of a properly positioned patient.
- Diagnostic-quality radiograph for each projection demonstrates the result the radiographer is trying to achieve.
- Computed Radiography information allows the radiographer to make the subtle adjustments necessary to obtaining optimal CR results.
- Exposure technique chart for every projection helps reduce the need for repeat radiographs and improves overall image quality.
- Abbreviations and external landmarks are listed on the inside front cover and inside back cover for quick reference.
- Compensating filter information is included for those projections where filters are used.
- Section dividers with tabs make it easier to find the beginning of each section.
- NEW! Updated digital radiographs provide greater contrast resolution for improved visualization of pertinent anatomy.
- NEW! Thoroughly revised content reflects the latest American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) standards.
- NEW! Updated positioning photos show current digital imaging equipment and technology.
- NEW! Full-color design emphasizes the key points on each page, enhancing your study of radiographic positioning and procedures.
