Learn to produce the most accurate radiographic images on the first try with Radiographic Image Analysis, 4th Edition. This thoroughly updated guide walks you through the steps of how to carefully evaluate an image, how to identify the improper positioning or technique that caused a poor image, and how to correct the problem. For each procedure, there is a diagnostic-quality radiograph along with several examples of unacceptable radiographs, a complete list of radiographic evaluation guidelines, and detailed discussions on how each of the evaluation points is related to positioning and technique. Each unacceptable radiograph is accompanied by a description of the misaligned anatomical struct...
This comprehensive guide shows how to reduce the need for repeat radiographs. It teaches how to carefully evaluate an image, how to identify the improper positioning or technique that caused a poor image, and how to correct the problem. This text equips radiographers with the critical thinking skills needed to anticipate and adjust for positioning and technique challenges before a radiograph is taken, so they can produce the best possible diagnostic quality radiographs. Provides a complete guide to evaluating radiographs and troubleshooting positioning and technique errors, increasing the likelihood of getting a good image on the first try. Offers step-by-step descriptions of all evaluation ...
Thorough and easy to follow, this book is a complete guide to the accurate evaluation of radiographs for the most commonly performed orthopaedic procedures. Readers will learn how to adjust positioning and technical factors when unacceptable radiographs are obtained. Detailed discussions correlate each evaluating criteria with the patient or central ray setup procedure. An instructor's manual and slide set are available.

Patient Care in Radiography helps you acquire and refine both the technical and interpersonal skills you need to provide quality patient care in the clinical environment. Because patient care is involved in virtually every aspect of imaging, high-quality patient care is just as important as your competent performance of procedures. In Patient Care in Radiography, patient care is integrated with procedural skills throughout the text, ensuring that you know how to provide the best care for every patient you encounter. Skills that are imperative for quality patient care in radiography, such as safety, transfer, and positioning; infection control; and patient assessment are emphasized. You'll find full coverage of introductory topics, as well as key information on microbiology, emerging diseases, transcultural communication, ECGs, administration of medications, and bedside radiography.
Featuring all the latest imaging modalities—including ultrasound, MR, and PET/CT—this Second Edition text provides a solid understanding of sectional anatomy and its applications in clinical imaging. Chapters on each body region include patient CT and MR images shown in sequence through multiple planes, followed by clinical cases centered on CT, MR, ultrasound, and PET/CT images. By comparing images from different patients, readers learn to distinguish normal anatomic variations from variations that indicate disease or injury. This edition includes new clinical cases and has a new layout that makes it easier to compare images from several patients. Each chapter ends with clinical application questions.
A workbook to supply students with a means of testing information covered in Radiographic Critique.
