Preface

Digital radiography has replaced film-based radiography (FBR) and is now current practice in most medical imaging departments in the world. The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) has offered a definition of digital radiography as “radiographic imaging technology producing digital projection images such as those using photostimulable storage phosphor (computed radiography, or CR), amorphous selenium, amorphous silicon, charge-coupled device (CCD), or metal oxide semiconductor-field effect transistor (MOSFET) technology.” These technologies can produce acceptable image quality over a wider range of exposure techniques compared to film screen radiography. To the best of the author’s knowledge, this is the first book of its kind and the review questions are based on the textbook: • Digital Radiography: Physical Principles and Quality Control by Euclid Seeram, PhD, FCAMRT Second Edition. Springer 2019 The questions provided in this book cover a wide range of topics to address the needs of members of various professional radiologic technology associations including the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT
