Abstract

The purpose of any radiographic examination is to produce a film or films with the maximum information, clearly presented at the lowest possible dosage to the patient. The requisite parameters are sharpness, contrast, grain and exposure. This discussion will attempt to relate these to focal spot size, magnification, motion, film, screens and exposure techniques.
