Synopsis:

Practice and review the concepts presented in Merrill's Atlas! This popular workbook set includes anatomy labeling exercises, positioning exercises, self-tests, and an answer key. Types of exercises include matching, labeling and identifying anatomy, short-answer and multiple-choice questions, crosswords, true/false, fill-in-the-blank, identifying structures on radiographs, and identifying proper patient positioning. A must-have for radiography students!

• Exercises correspond to chapters in Merrill's Atlas, providing strong support for teaching and learning.
• Essential projections are those most frequently performed and determined to be necessary knowledge for entry-level competency.
• Anatomy and positioning exercises provide balanced coverage of both topics.
• Film evaluation exercises include radiographs with accompanying questions on why an image is inadequate, leading to fewer repeat exams in the practice environment.
• A wide variety of review exercises are used to cover different kinds of information.
• An abundance of labeling exercises include about 600 illustrations for labeling practice, ensuring that students recognize anatomical structures on actual radiographs, not just on line drawings.
• Comprehensive self-tests end each chapter, so that students can accurately gauge their comprehension of the material and measure their own progress.
• Pathology exercises help radiographers understand which projections will best demonstrate various pathologies.

• Additional exercises covering all chapters in Merrill's Atlas Volumes 1 and 2 and some in Volume 3, including:
• Compensating Filters
• Geriatric and Pediatric Radiography
• Mobile Radiography
• Surgical Radiography
• Computed Tomography
• Exercises to review abbreviations
• Exercises on aspects of digital imaging related to positioning and procedures
