Paediatric Radiography

Beschreibung

Radiography is an integral part of paediatric health care. It isfrequently requested to assist in the diagnosis, management andtreatment of childhood disease and illness. Accurate interpretationof paediatric radiographs can depend entirely on the qualityof images produced by the radiographer, yet there are few booksavailable on this crucial aspect of radiographic practice. Paediatric Radiography fills a gap. It exploresradiographic practice within the context of the modern healthservice and focuses on how our knowledge and understanding ofpaediatric growth, development and illness can inform and influenceradiographic procedures. It includes detailed coverage of specificpaediatric techniques and good practice models, including the roleof multi-modality imaging, and looks specifically at radiationprotection, the chest and upper airways, the abdomen, neonatalradiography, trauma, orthopaedics, and non-accidental injury.
