With straightforward coverage of imaging principles, Fauber’s Radiographic Imaging and Exposure, 7th Edition, describes exposure techniques and how to acquire, process, and display digital images. Not only does this book help you reduce the need for repeat images, but it also includes problem-solving strategies for clinical practice. Written by noted educator Terri L. Fauber, this book also provides the essential knowledge needed to pass the ARRT initial certification exam.
