Applications of technology & position in radiography

Radiographic positioning refers to the way the body is placed, we call this general body position, or to the part of the body that's closest to the image receptor and we call this specific body position. A specific body position describes the body part closest to the IR or the body surface on which the patient lies. The radiographer works in a highly advanced technical profession that also requires excellent people skills. It is an exciting and rewarding profession to be a part of. Radiology or medical imaging departments are extremely safe places to work and to spend time in. There are state and federal regulations governing safe work practices and radiation safety within all X-ray departments and private imaging clinics. See the presentation to know more about various important positions and techniques used in radiography.
