Elsevier eBook on VitalSource


Corresponding to the chapters in Bontrager and Lampignano’s Textbook of Radiographic Positioning and Related Anatomy, 8th Edition, this practical workbook offers a wide variety of exercises to help students learn radiographic positioning and produce quality radiographs. It challenges students with situation-based questions, film critique questions, laboratory activities, and self-evaluation tests.
-
- Updated content matches the revisions to the textbook.
- A wide variety of exercises include questions on anatomy, positioning critique, and image evaluation, with answers at the end of the workbook.
- Self-tests at the ends of chapters assess learning with multiple choice, labeling, short answer, and true/false questions.
- Chapter competencies are formatted as a set of tasks that students should be able to perform after working through the material.
- Situational questions describe clinical scenarios, then ask students to apply their knowledge to real-life examples.
- Film critique questions prepare students to evaluate the quality of radiographs and ask what positioning corrections need to be made to improve the image.
- Stronger focus on computed and digital radiography in questions includes images from the newest equipment.
- Expanded coverage of computed tomography reflects changes in practice.
- Laboratory exercises provide hands-on experience as students perform radiographs using phantoms, evaluate the images, and practice positioning.
- NEW one-volume format is easier to use than the two-volume set of the previous edition.
