k
k understand k thekmedicalbenefit kof k an k imaging k procedure k are k more k likely k to
a. assume ka ksmall kchance kof kbiologic kdamage kbut knot ksuppress kany

6. If ka kpatient kasks ka kradiographer ka kquestion kabout khow kmuch kradiation k he kor
kshe kwillkreceivefrom k a k specific k x-ray k procedure, k the k radiographer k can
a. respond kby kusing kan kestimation kbased kon kthe kcomparison kof kradiation

a. So kthat kreferring kphysicians k ordering k imaging kprocedures k do k not
k have ktokacceptresponsibility k for k patient k radiation k safety.
b. So kthat k radiographers k and k radiologists do knot k have
k to k accept k responsibility for
, patient k radiation k safety.

10. Why k is k a kquestion kconcerning kthe k amount k of kradiation ka kpatient k will k receive
k during kakspecificx-ray k procedure k difficult k to k answer?
1. Because k the k received kdose kis k specified k in k a knumber k of kdifferent k units k of
kmeasure.
2. Because k the k scientific k units k for k radiation k dose kare k normally k not
k comprehensible by
kakpatient.
3. Because k the k patient k should k not kreceive k any kinformation k about k radiation k dose.
