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
