<p>First published in 1939, Clark's Positioning in Radiography is the definitive text on patient positioning for the diagnostic radiography student and practitioner. This fully revised 12th edition ensures that the title retains its pre-eminence in the field, with hundreds of new positioning photographs and brand new explanatory line diagrams, a clearly defined and easy-to-follow structure, and international applicability. The book presents the essentials of radiographic techniques in as practical a way as possible, avoiding unnecessary technical complexity and ensuring that the student and practitioner can find quickly the information that they require regarding a particular position. The experienced author team, expanded for this edition, understand that there is no substitute for a good understanding of basic skills in patient positioning and an accurate knowledge of anatomy to ensure good radiographic practice. All the standard positioning is included in this single volume, accompanied by supplementary positions where relevant and illustrations of pathology where appropriate. Common errors in positioning are also included.</p>

Since its initial publication in 1979, Essential Physics for Radiographers has earned an international reputation as a clear and straightforward introduction to the physics of radiography, and remains the core textbook for student radiographers. This third edition reflects the change from diploma to graduated radiography education. Nonetheless, the authors have retained the pragmatic approach of earlier editions and continue to provide a text for those students who find it difficult to grasp the subject of physics. The book has undergone major revisions and the content has been broadened to reflect the recent advances in imaging technology. New topics include magnetic resonance, lasers and alternating current theory. Fundamental physical concepts such as internal energy and post-Bohr atomic theory are more fully discussed in order to stimulate students to find out more information. Terminology has been revised to bring it in line with current educational and scientific practice, and decimal numbering of sections has been introduced. Information sources have been referenced and an extensive bibliography is provided. New diagrams are included, others have been redrawn with greater accuracy, and tables of physical data have been included. Worked examples and calculations feature strongly, and the innovative context-sensitive Maths Help File guides readers gently through the mathematical steps and concepts.

This companion to Clark's Positioning in Radiography focuses on special imaging procedures and the different modalities and contrast media studies which are used in the modern imaging department. Bringing together all specialized procedures into one volume, it is the essential source of information for all radiography staff when faced with specialized investigations.The book adopts a systematic approach and is designed to be a clear and comprehensive reference text. Each chapter is highly illustrated and contains sections detailing anatomy and physiology, including common variants, and an overview of recommended imaging procedures.Both conventional and cross-sectional procedures are described, giving details for each procedure on indications/contraindications, position of patient, imaging modality, imaging procedure, contrast media and injection data, and image analysis. Important information is provided on the parameters which affect image production and quality for each of the modalities described in the book.It is ideal for use by radiographers in the clinical environment and also as a teaching/studying resource at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.
