This review is from: Basic Medical Techniques and Patient Care in Imaging Technology (Paperback)

I used this handy reference in school, and it not only helped me to get excellent grades but it also is what I consider a needed reference for the American registry exam for radiologic technologists. This book covers quite thoroughly the section on Patient Care for the american registry exam. I was also recommended a few other books from someone who previously took the american registry exam and passed.
The other books are:
"The Ultimate Study Guide for the Registry Examination in Radiography:Key Review Questions and Answers" by Leonardi (Volume1) (Volume2) and (Volume 3). These books had all the questions and answers one needs to make sure they know before taking this test. I know because they helped me to pass.
