Master the techniques and principles of digital imaging! Using an easy-to-understand format and style, Digital Radiography and Imaging Informatics, 5th Edition, provides the latest information on digital imaging systems. It offers tips on producing clear radiographic images and helps you build skills in computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR), as well as Medical Image Management and Processing Systems (MIMPS). Coverage also includes the management of medical images from acquisition to the storage and sharing of data. Written by noted educators Christi Carter and Beth Vealé, this book provides excellent preparation for the ARRT credentialing exam and for success as a practicing technologist.
