  • Performing X-Ray Imaging :

  • Position patients correctly to obtain accurate images of the specific area of interest, using proper positioning techniques and guidelines.
  • Operate X-ray machines to take images of bones, organs, tissues, and other internal structures as requested by the physician.
  • Adjust the machine settings (e.g., exposure, radiation dose, and angle) based on the body part being imaged, patient size, and medical condition.
  • Ensure the images meet diagnostic standards for clarity and accuracy, making adjustments as needed.
  • Communicate with patients during the procedure, giving instructions (e.g., hold still, breathe deeply, or hold your breath) to ensure clear and accurate images.
  • Patient Safety and Comfort :

  • Ensure patient safety during the procedure by following radiation safety protocols , including limiting exposure to radiation and using protective gear (e.g., lead aprons) when necessary.
  • Monitor the patient during the procedure to ensure their comfort and provide reassurance, especially if the procedure causes discomfort or anxiety.
  • Ensure that patients are positioned safely to avoid injury or discomfort during the imaging process.
  • Address any patient concerns or side effects that may arise during or after the procedure.
  • Image Quality and Analysis :

  • Review X-ray images to ensure they are of sufficient quality for interpretation by a radiologist or physician.
  • Confirm that the images meet medical requirements, ensuring correct body part alignment and appropriate exposure.
  • If the images are unclear or incomplete, repeat the procedure as needed, adjusting settings or patient positioning.
  • Provide preliminary assessments or observations to the physician if required, within the scope of practice.
  • Post-Procedure Care :

  • Assist the patient after the procedure, ensuring they are stable and comfortable before leaving the imaging area.
  • Remove any protective lead aprons or coverings from the patient.
  • Provide post-procedure instructions, including care for any potential side effects or follow-up requirements.
  • Equipment Maintenance and Troubleshooting :

  • Perform routine maintenance and checks on the X-ray equipment to ensure it is in good working order and functioning properly.
  • Ensure the imaging room and equipment are clean and disinfected after each patient, adhering to infection control protocols.
  • Troubleshoot basic issues with the X-ray machine, and report any equipment malfunctions or concerns to the appropriate staff for repair or service.
  • Documentation and Record-Keeping :

  • Document all relevant patient information, procedures performed, and images captured in the electronic health record (EHR) or imaging system.
  • Ensure images are properly labeled, filed, and stored in the system for future reference and analysis by the physician.
  • Maintain accurate logs of X-ray procedures, equipment use, and any issues that arise during operations.
  • Collaboration with Medical Team :

  • Work closely with physicians, radiologists, and other healthcare professionals to ensure the images are reviewed promptly and accurately.
  • Communicate effectively with the medical team about any issues related to image quality or the need for additional imaging.
  • Ensure that any follow-up imaging or additional procedures are scheduled as needed.
  • Radiation Safety and Compliance :

  • Adhere to established safety protocols to minimize exposure to radiation for both the patient and staff.
  • Ensure the appropriate use of protective equipment (e.g., lead shields, aprons, and thyroid collars) when necessary to protect the patient and others in the vicinity.
  • Comply with all radiation safety standards , including guidelines for exposure levels and safety measures specific to the facility.
  • Professional Development and Training :

  • Stay current with advances in radiologic technology , including improvements in X-ray imaging and new safety protocols.
  • Participate in continuing education programs, workshops, or certification courses to maintain licensure and keep up with industry standards.
  • Assist in the training of new technologists, students, or interns, offering guidance on the technical aspects of imaging and patient care.
