Synopsis

Trauma and Mobile Radiography is a concise introduction to radiographing trauma patients.

Its user-friendly style will help students and practicing radiographers produce better images in difficult situations, avoiding "learning by accident" trauma situations.

  • Describes many types of trauma and their causes to help radiographers anticipate and plan for the patient's needs.
  • Reviews vital signs and trauma patient assessment procedures.
  • Describes supportive measures for medical emergencies.
  • Covers 131 trauma radiographic procedures with directions about positioning the film and central ray in relation to the body part.
  • Contains a quick reference card with the information trauma radiographers need at their fingertips.
