It covers creating the beam, protecting patients and personnel, creating the image, radiography, analyzing the image, and special imaging systems and modalities. Th emphasizes the technical information and ethical importance of the specifics of image receptor sensitivity, to reduce exposure to the patient and adhere to ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) concepts. This edition includes an introduction to physics and imaging modalities and new details on the principles of radiographic exposure techniques related to the use of technology. It revises image quality factors to reflect the realities of establishing radiographic exposure factors, including image receptor exposure, contrast, spatial resolution, distortion, histogram fulfillment, and look up table. It introduces five phases of digitized image production (acquisition, processing, archiving, displaying, and analyzing), with discussion of factors that impact imaging decisions. Th has also been revised with current clinical practices and changes, and the unit on radiography has been rewritten. Annotation ©2020 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
