Description
Completely updated, this text provides a basic description of quality management and explains why it is so important to imaging technology.
Step-by-step procedures with full-size evaluation forms explain how to understand and implement proper evaluation and documentation of
quality assurance and quality control. Useful features include appendices with a review of radiographic quality factors and a glossary
with definitions of all the bold-faced terms from the text. A companion CD includes mock Registry exams, sample documentation forms,
lab experiments, and critical thinking questions.
