Anatomy coverage

Targeted anatomy at minimum dose.

Tech pearls

  • Stand on intensifier side — scatter is highest near the tube.
  • Use lead glasses and thyroid shield always.
  • Boost/mag modes increase dose — use sparingly.

Image evaluation

  • Anatomy of interest centered
  • Minimum dose for adequate image

Common mistakes

  • Tube above patient (high scatter to staff)
  • Continuous fluoro instead of pulsed
  • Wide collimation
