Abstract

An aggressive program of quality assurance in the Radiology Department can do much to insure the diagnostic content of radiographs while reducing patient and operator doses. To establish the program it was first necessary to identify the parameters to be evaluated and to place realistic limits on the allowable tolerances for each. The methods of measuring each parameter are described.
