Technique is a critical part of the radiographic study as in many conditions high quality images are required to detect subtle lesions and afford the clinician the confidence that a negative study genuinely means that no pathology is visible. The aim when taking a radiograph is to obtain an image that accurately represents the anatomy of the patient without distortion or unsharpness. for many anatomical regions, specific oblique views are required to visualize the anatomy and demonstrate pathology. The chapter discusses Patient preparation; Patient restraint; Patient positioning; Exposure factors; Contrast; Radiographic artefacts and film faults; and Establishing a practice radiographic facility.
