Synopsis

This text explores all aspects of imaging of the oral and maxillofacial complex. The text integrates film-based radiology with computer-assisted modalities to help users choose the best technology. It covers intraoral and extraoral radiography, electronic and computer-assisted imaging, CT, MRI and radionuclide imaging. The book explores factor manipulations and their effect on image contrast and density using sample calculations of exposure time, mAs, kYp and SFD, and illustrates X-ray machine function with detailed figures. It also correlates radiation biology, protection and safety to strengthen understanding of dose, measurement, exposure and risk, and presents a variety of infection-control protocols and their rationales to ensure the safety of both the imaging technologist and patient. It discusses approaches to quality assessment, patient positioning, and common errors, to help obtain the most telling images. The book also contains a chapter on radiograph presentation which emphasizes optimal viewing conditions and the use of standardized terminology.
