Give your students the knowledge and skills needed to analyze radiographic images and solve imaging challenges! Reflecting the latest ARRT® content specifications, Radiographic Image Analysis, 6th Edition provides a guide to evaluating and adjusting images to produce diagnostic-quality radiographs. It helps students learn to identify the error in positioning or technique that may have caused a poor image, then shows how to correct the problem, so they can reduce the need for repeat radiographs. Each projection includes an optimal radiograph along with examples of unacceptable images. Not only does this text build critical thinking skills, but it helps students prepare for success on the ARRT certification examination.

    • NEW! Revamped chapters on digital imaging incorporate the latest technology.
    • NEW! Updates reflect the latest ARRT® content specifications.
    • Image analysis guidelines for each procedure include accurately positioned projections with labeled anatomy, photographs of accurately positioned models, discussions of poor positioning and of positioning variations, practice projections that demonstrate common procedural errors, and more.
