Critical Thinking: Developing Skills in Radiography

This text guides the reader toward making decisions that produce the highest-quality radiographs whilst considering the needs and limitations of the patient. The 25 case studies present real clinical problems and 10 performance case studies for the laboratory allow students to demonstrate their learning. Students are asked to critique their own radiographs in class using an evaluation method presented in the book, and a tear-out student evaluation for the course can be saved and presented at job interviews. The book meets the JRCERT accreditation standards for promoting critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and provides a step-by-step method for analyzing critical problems that can be applied to all clinical settings, as well as to other situations outside of direct patient care.
