Diagnostic Radiography: A Concise Practical Manual

Diagnostic Radiography is established as a comprehensive yet concise, up-to-date, practical manual for diagnostic radiographers. This edition covers all aspects of the subject and includes a complete description of radiological procedures. The development of modern techniques in the field of radiography has necessitated many additions to this edition, in particular a completely new chapter on interventional radiology and a useful appendix of radiation dosages. There are also major new sections on qauality assurance and magnetic resonance imaging, and the chapters on macroradiography, photographic subtraction, angiography, venography, urinary tract radiography, pneumography and arthrography have all been considerably expanded to take account of the latest methods being used.

Students of radiography throughout the English-speaking world will find this book most useful, as will those preparing for Part 1 of the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists examination. However, this is not merely a book for students: qualified radiographers, nurses radiological technicians, and all the staff in busy departments of radiodiagnosis will continue to find it indispensable as a source of reference.
