Perfect your positioning skills with the leading radiography text and clinical reference! Merrill's Atlas of Radiographic Positioning & Procedures, 15th Edition helps you learn to position patients properly, set exposures, and produce the clear radiographs needed to make accurate diagnoses. Guidelines to both common and uncommon projections prepare you for every kind of patient encounter. Anatomy and positioning information is organized by bone group or organ system, and coverage of special imaging modalities includes CT, MRI, sonography, radiation therapy, and more. Written by noted educators Jeannean Hall Rollins, Bruce Long, and Tammy Curtis, Merrill's Atlas is not just the gold standard in imaging - it also prepares you for the ARRT exam!
Comprehensive, full-color coverage of anatomy and positioning makes Merrill's Atlas the most in-depth text and reference available for radiography students and practitioners
Guidelines to each projection include a photograph of a properly positioned patient and information on patient position, part position, central ray angulation, collimation, KVp values, and evaluation criteria
Diagnostic-quality radiograph for each projection demonstrates the result the radiographer is trying to achieve
Coverage of common and unique positioning procedures includes chapters on trauma, surgical radiography, geriatrics/pediatrics, and bone densitometry, to help prepare you for the full scope of situations you will encounter
Numerous CT and MRI images enhance comprehension of cross-sectional anatomy and help in preparing for the Registry examination
Frequently requested projections are identified with a special icon to help you focus on what you need to know as an entry-level radiographer
Image receptor and collimation sizes plus other key information are provided for each relevant projection
Bulleted lists provide clear instructions on how to correctly position the patient and body part when performing procedures
Summary tables provide quick access to projection overviews, guides to anatomy, pathology tables for bone groups and body systems, and exposure technique charts
NEW! Updated content reflects the advances and continuing evolution of digital imaging technology
NEW! Revised positioning techniques reflect the latest American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) standards, and include photos of current digital imaging for the lower limb, scoliosis, pain management, and the swallowing dysfunction.
NEW! Added digital radiographs provide greater contrast resolution for improved visualization of pertinent anatomy
Jeannean has been teaching in Medical Imaging at Arkansas State University since 1991. In that time, she has served as interim program director, Faculty Senate senator, Faculty Association Secretary, Vice-President of the Arkansas Society of Radiologic Technologists, and numerous committees for the college and university. Additionally, she has been a recipient of the Arkansas State University Board of Trustees Faculty Award for Teaching Excellence and the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) Distinguished Author Award. She has numerus national peer-reviewed journal publications and continuously provides presentations at various local, state, and national forums. Jeannean is co-author of Merrill's Atlas of Radiographic Positioning and Procedures, an internationally renowned textbook in medical imaging procedures. Her other scholarly activities focus on providing electronic instructional tools for medical imaging educators Dr. Curtis has published several articles in journals, contributed to books, edited and reviewed educational books and products, and developed new products. She is the current author of international radiologic sciences education textbooks. Dr. Curtis has served in offices from secretary to president in her state affiliate and is still active in serving members and students. She holds several memberships with professional organizations and volunteers at national conferences for student competitions and hosting CE lectures for technologists and educators. Before entering academia, she worked as a radiologic technologist for various healthcare organizations. She continues to visit local clinical sites with current undergraduate students to stay current in the practice field. Dr. Curtis research interest is emergency preparedness and disaster response and serves on several college committees. She is the current university liaison for La Region 7 Hospital Preparedness Healthcare Coalition.
