This comprehensive, well-established textbook presents the basic principles of clinical radiology.

Describing techniques with step-by-step procedures and illustrations, the topics include: basic x-ray generation, image formation, film mounting, biologic effects of radiation, lesions, infection control, film processing and interpretation, intraoral and extraoral techniques, panoramic radiography, patient management, and legal considerations.
