Reseña del editor

This is a practical guide to the implementation and operation of a routine quality assurance (QA) programme for personnel concerned with the daily provision of diagnostic radiology services. It is written by two physicists and two radiographers with extensive experience in developing and implementing QA protocols. Quality assurance in this context is concerned with the interplay of three related aspects of radiological practice - costs, risks and benefits - with the aim of producing the most effective operational framework for the application of these principles. The book was written in response to a growing need within the medical and health care professions for a coherent and comprehensive information source on the implementation of a QA programme in departments of medical imaging. It provides an overview of most of the tests which need to be carried out, and gives step by step instructions on how to perform and interpret the results. This is a working manual, intended to be used as part of the 'apparatus' needed to implement a QA programme. Radiographers, radiologists, physicists, and manufacturers of medical imaging equipment will welcome it as one of the first publications to offer clear cut advice on quality assurance protocols in medical imaging.
