Bontrager's Handbook of Radiographic Positioning and Techniques, 8e 8th Edition by Bontrager MA RT(R), Kenneth L., Lampignano MEd RT(R) (CT), (2013) Spiral-bound

by Kenneth L. Bontrager MA RT(R), John Lampignano MEd RT(R) (CT)

In addition to positioning descriptions for all body parts, this pocket-sized handbook includes basic information and applied aspects of radiographic techniques and exposure factors including numerous conversion charts.

Included is a chapter on descriptions and illustrations on the various forms of digital radiography currently in use. Also included are clear explanations with photographs of all commonly performed x-ray exams. This handbook is essentially a condensed version of the positioning and technique portions of Bontrager's Textbook of Radiographic Positioning and Related Anatomy, soon to be in its 7th edition.

This handbook is also an invaluable tool for learning radiographic positioning in a clinical setting. It has many of the features of the larger, classroom edition in a small, portable version.

Excellent text book for radiologic technology
Read many chapters and pages of it and I still keep it as a reference.

Putting me in a major reading slump!!!!!

As far as textbooks go though it kinda slays

Great book for every soon-to-be radiographer/radiologic technologist. You could say it's a bit dated since there are a lot of positions you more or less never do these days because of CT, but at the same time, one day you might stand there, having to take "that" picture you never bothered to learn, and that's when you bring out this book again. Great to have.

The Bontrager textbook is what I learned from in X-Ray school. At the time; I had a love/hate relationship with the textbook, now it is a valuable reference.
