The second edition of this easy-to-understand pocket guide remains
an invaluable tool for students, assistant practitioners and
radiographers. Providing an accessible introduction to the subject
in a reader-friendly format, it includes diagrams and photographs
to support the text. Each chapter provides clear learning
objectives and a series of MCQs to test reader assimilation of the
material. The book opens with overviews of image production, basic
mathematics and imaging physics, followed by detailed chapters on
the physics relevant to producing diagnostic images using X-rays
and digital technologies. The content has been updated throughout
and includes a new chapter on CT imaging and additional material on
radioactivity, dosimetry, and imaging display and manipulation.
Clark's Essential Physics in Imaging for Radiographers supports
students in demonstrating an understanding of the fundamental
definitions of physics applied to radiography ... all you need to
know to pass your exams!

Drawn from the bestselling Clark's Positioning in Radiography, this
pocket handbook provides clear and practical advice to help
radiographers in their day-to-day work. Designed for rapid
reference, it covers how to position the patient and the central
ray, describes the essential image characteristics and illustrates
each radiographic projection with a positioning photograph and a
radiograph.
First published in 1939, Clark's Positioning in Radiography is the
pre-eminent text on positioning technique for diagnostic
radiographers. Whilst retaining the clear and easy-to-follow
structure of the previous edition, the thirteenth edition includes
a number of changes and innovations in radiographic technique. The
text has been extensively updated, including a new section on
evaluating images, The Ten Point Plan, which is linked throughout
to Essential Image Characteristics for each procedure. The section
on digital imaging has been expanded not only to elaborate more
extensively on the technology but to demonstrate its various
clinical applications. Students will also benefit from more
detailed reference to positioning errors and how to avoid mistakes,
as well as a greater emphasis on standard radiation protection
measures and guidance on the most recent radiation dose reference
levels for specific examinations.This new edition includes more
anatomical drawings to support better understanding of radiographic
anatomy, and brand-new positioning photographs reflecting the
different approaches in technique using the variety of imaging
platforms available in radiography departments. Clark's Positioning
in Radiography will continue to be the definitive work on
radiographic technique for all students on diagnostic radiography
courses, radiographers in practice and trainee radiologists
preparing for the FRCR or equivalent qualifying examinations.
This definitive book is the companion volume to Clark's Positioning
in Radiography. It is focused on special imagining procedures and
techniques and interventional procedures. Bringing together
conventional contrast media studies, computed tomography,
ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, radionuclide imaging
including PET, SPECT CT and PET MRI and digital interventional
procedures into one volume, it is the essential source of
information for students of Radiography and Radiographer Assistant
Trainees. The book reflects as to why procedures are carried out in
terms of the indications for justification under IRMER 2000
procedures and any NICE or other medical referral guidelines such
as the Map of Medicine.The book adopts an anatomical systemic
approach, designed to be a clear and comprehensive reference text.
Each chapter is highly illustrated and contains sections detailing
anatomy, pathology considerations, procedure methodology and an
evaluation of recommended imaging modalities. Both conventional and
cross-sectional procedures are described, giving details for each
procedure on indications/contraindication, position of patient,
imaging modality, imaging procedure, contrast media and injection
data, and imaging analysis. Important information is provided on
the parameters which affect image production and quality for each
of the modalities described in the book as well as considering the
risk benefit, sensitivity and specificity of procedures.Whilst
keeping many of the standard procedures and successful changes and
additions to the first edition (Clark's Special Procedures in
Diagnostic Imaging), this new edition includes a number of new
innovations as well as reflecting the changes in approach to
radiographic technique as a result of the variety of different
x-ray equipment platforms accompanying the new digital imaging
technology environment and advancements across the range of modern
imaging modalities. The innovations include a section on
recommended imaging pathways for different disease processes, the
addition of a number of procedures not covered in the original
edition i.e. defecating proctograms and herniograms and virtual
coloscopy . This author team has a wide experience in publication
and access to modern radiography imaging departments where
technique and procedures are constantly changing many of which are
reflected, making this book state of the art and reflecting the
changing and advanced role of the radiographer.
