This work is designed to teach student radiographers positioning and special procedures. For each procedure, a description of the photograph is accompanied by a photograph, the X-ray result, a line... This description may be from another edition of this product.
All that matters here is simplicity and precision. As the title says, Radiographis Positioning and Related Anatomy. You got what you expected: all radiographic positioning (almost all) and related anatomy (enough for x ray procedures but you really need anatomy book by your side)I highly recommend this book for reference but additional facts should be close at hand for further referrals. The Department of Diagnostic Imaging and Radiotherapy in the National University of Malaysia gives this book a definite thumbs up. I believe many universities do the same.
Xray techs you NEED this book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I have been an xray technologist since 1984. And I thought I knew everything about taking a chest xray...well, I did, back then. My department purchased this book last month and it is an eye opener! I read things in this book that I didn't know or had forgotten. The pictures are great, information priceless. If you are an 'old salt' like me or just a 'young pup' starting out, I highly recommend this book. You'll keep it with you throughout your career.
Good Reference for X - Ray techs.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
If you're an x - ray technician and continually do the same old procedures over and over again such as chest or back x - rays (like I do), you may become rusty on other procedures. If the dr. orders a jaw series or knee sunrise, your mind may draw a blank image of what he's talking about. I always have this book handy in my darkroom in case of these "emergencies". Once I look at the photograph/illustration and the FFD - it all comes back. I set the patient up and take the shot and run it through the processor; it always turns out right (so long as this text is with me).
