Marker Visibility
Markers must be placed within the exposure field but outside the anatomy. Proper placement prevents confusion during interpretation. Clear markers improve documentation. Marker visibility is essential for accurate imaging.
Left and Right Indicators
Using correct side markers prevents mislabeling. Digital overlays should not replace physical markers. Physical markers provide legal documentation. Proper labeling reduces errors.
Avoiding Overlap
Markers should not overlap anatomy or obscure pathology. Careful placement improves clarity. Good habits reduce repeat imaging. Marker awareness supports diagnostic accuracy.
Workflow Efficiency
Keeping markers accessible improves workflow speed. Organized storage reduces delays. Efficient marker use supports high volume imaging. Good habits enhance productivity.
