2.662,95 kr. Learn and perfect your positioning skills with the leading radiography text and clinical reference! Merrill's Atlas of Radiographic Positioning & Procedures, 16th Edition, describes how to position patients properly, set exposures, and produce the quality radiographs needed to make accurate diagnoses. Guidelines to both common and uncommon projections prepare you for every kind of patient encounter. Anatomy and positioning information is organized by bone group or organ system, and coverage of special imaging modalities includes CT, MRI, sonography, radiation therapy, and more. The gold standard in imaging, Merrill's Atlas covers all procedures in the ASRT radiography curriculum and prepares you for the ARRT exam. NEW! Respiration heading emphasizes the importance of proper breathing instructions for maximizing image quality. NEW! Patient positioning photos enhance chapters on the chest, abdomen, pelvis and hip, bony thorax, upper extremity, and lower extremity. NEW and UPDATED! Additional figures and content in special imaging modality chapters represent current practice, protocols, safety measures, and technology in pediatric imaging, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, diagnostic medical sonography, mammography, molecular imaging, nuclear medicine, and radiation oncology. UPDATED! Unit values expressed as SI units, with traditional units provided in parentheses, match the format used in imaging technical texts and the ARRT exam. UPDATED! Gonadal shielding guidelines align with current clinical practice. UPDATED! Collimation field sizes and image receptor sizes are simplified for enhanced clinical relevance. STREAMLINED! Rounded decimal values replace fractions throughout the text. Comprehensive, full-color coverage of anatomy and positioning makes Merrill's Atlas the most in-depth text and reference available for radiography students and practitioners. Guidelines to each projection include a photograph of a properly positioned patient and information on patient position, part position, respiration, central ray angulation, collimation, kVp values, structures shown, and evaluation criteria. Diagnostic-quality radiograph for each projection demonstrates the result the radiographer is trying to achieve. Coverage of common and unique positioning procedures includes chapters on trauma, mobile, surgical radiography, geriatrics, and pediatrics to help prepare you for the full scope of situations you will encounter. Numerous CT and MRI images enhance comprehension of cross-sectional anatomy and help in preparing for the Registry examination.

526,95 kr. This handy guide puts frequently requested radiographic projections at your fingertips! Merrill's Pocket Guide to Radiography, 16th Edition summarizes essential information for more than 150 radiography projections in a spiral-bound format designed for quick reference in the clinical environment. Clear instructions explain how to position patients and body parts, and an optimal radiograph is included for each projection. A portable, easy-to-carry companion to the three-volume Merrill's Atlas, this book provides guidelines for everything from perfect positioning to perfect exposures. NEW! Appendix for working with obese patients provides guidance on modified positioning and imaging techniques. NEW! Updated images enhance coverage of the chest, abdomen, pelvis and hip, bony thorax, upper extremity, and lower extremity. NEW! Updated exposure technique charts offer current information for obtaining high-quality images. Bulleted, step-by-step instructions show how to position the patient and body part for frequently requested radiography projections. Exposure technique chart for every projection helps reduce the need for repeat radiographs and improves overall image quality. Abbreviations and external landmarks are listed inside the front and back covers for quick reference. Diagnostic-quality radiograph for each projection demonstrates the result the radiographer is trying to achieve. More than 150 projections are each presented in a two-page spread, and include information on patient position, part position, respiration, central ray angulation, collimation, KVp values, and a photograph of a properly positioned patient. Section dividers with tabs make it easier to find the beginning of each section.

1.898,95 kr. 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, 16th 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. 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.
