Workbook for Merrill's Atlas of Radiographic Positioning and Procedures

Description:
Reinforce your understanding of radiographic positioning and procedures with this practical workbook! Corresponding to the content in Merrill's Atlas of Radiographic Positioning and Procedures, Sixteenth Edition, this workbook helps you review and practice essential radiographic terminology, anatomy, and positioning concepts. Exercises include multiple-choice and matching questions, imaging evaluation, and more. Written by the textbook’s authors, this workbook prepares you for success on the ARRT certification exam and in clinical radiography practice.

Features:

• NEW! Patient positioning photos enhance chapters on the abdomen, thoracic viscera, bony thorax, and pelvis and hip
• NEW! Additional review questions in many of the chapters offer expanded self-assessment opportunities
• UPDATED! Measurement units match the format used in imaging texts and the ASRT (SI units as primary, then traditional units in parentheses)
• STREAMLINED! Decimal values replace fractions throughout the workbook
• Anatomy exercises reinforce understanding with multiple-choice, matching, and short-answer questions, labeling and identification diagrams, and crossword puzzles
• Positioning exercises include multiple-choice, matching, short-answer, true/false, and fill-in-the blank questions, labeling and identification diagrams, and comparisons of standard radiographic projections
• Exercises on identifying errors in radiographs prepare you to evaluate radiographs in clinical situations
• Pathology exercises help you understand which projections will best demonstrate various pathologies
• Self-tests at the end of each chapter include review questions, enabling you to assess your comprehension and measure your own progress
