Radiation protection in diagnostic imaging is an integral part of
the education and skill-set of radiologic technologists who play a
significant role in the optimization of the radiation dose to the
population. Radiation Protection in Diagnostic X-Ray Imaging
provides students and clinicians with the knowledge and tools to
protect not only the patient, but personnel and members of the
public as well. This comprehensive text reviews the critical issues
in radiologic protection and presents these key topics regarding
medial physics in an accessible manner for clinicians,
radiographers, and other health professionals. Radiation Protection
in Diagnostic X-Ray Imaging covers the recent developments that
have been introduced to address the increasing dose to the patient
and new assessment tools for use in dose optimization studies. This
accessible text includes an overview of the biological effects of
radiation exposure, outlines the fundamental physical principles
and technical aspects of radiation protection, as well as current
regulatory and guidance recommendations for radiation protection in
diagnostic imaging. Unique topics and coverage includes: radiation
protection organizations, dose in digital radiography, dose in
computed tomography, image quality assessment tools for dose
optimization in x-ray imaging, diagnostic reference levels, and
radiation protection through quality control. Radiation Protection
in Diagnostic X-Ray Imaging meets the educational requirements (for
entry to practice) of the following professional radiologic
technology associations: the American Society of Radiologic
Technologists (ASRT), the Canadian Association of Medical Radiation
Technologists (CAMRT), the College of Radiographers in the United
Kingdom, and radiography societies and associations in Asia,
Australia, and Europe and Africa regions. Radiation Protection in
Diagnostic X-Ray Imaging is an excellent choice for both diploma
and degree level program education as well as for clinical
reference. FEATURES Based on material from ASRT, ARRT and CAMRT, as
well as Current Concepts of Radiation Protection Content is mapped
to the ARRT Radiation Protection Examination Specifications and
ASRT Radiation Protection Objectives In addition to topics
prescribed by the ARRT for the certification examination, this book
includes topics for advanced study INSTRUCTOR RESOURCES: ASRT and
ARRT Guidelines, Sample Syllabus, Slides in PowerPoint format, Test
Bank Each new print copy includes Navigate 2 Advantage Access that
unlocks a comprehensive and interactive eBook, student practice
