Description

The first text to comprehensively cover radiographic imaging and the manipulation of images for the introductory course in radiography. Designed for the introductory course in radiographic exposure principles, this text will address emerging technologies in digital radiography, Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS), and the methods of manipulating, transferring, and archiving digital images. A bonus pocket guide, which includes commonly referred to formulas, tables, and conversion factors, is packaged with the text
