Anatomy Inclusion
Ensuring full coverage of the anatomy prevents cutoff. Proper detector placement improves exposure index accuracy. Coverage awareness reduces repeat imaging. Planning enhances workflow.
Field Size Awareness
Over collimation can exclude essential anatomy. Maintaining proper field size improves diagnostic value. Awareness of field limits enhances clarity. Field control is essential.
Patient Centering
Centering the patient ensures balanced exposure across the detector. Off centering affects brightness and noise. Proper alignment improves consistency. Centering awareness supports accurate imaging.
Detector Positioning
Adjusting detector height and angle improves coverage. Proper positioning enhances clarity. Awareness of detector placement improves workflow. Good technique supports high quality imaging.
