iRadTech is a user-friendly radiographic positioning guide designed specifically for medical imaging professionals and student radiographers. Whether you're a beginner or experienced in the field, this app serves as a helpful resource, much like an x-ray pocket guide or a reference booklet.

The app provides detailed instructions for over 200 radiographic positions. Each position includes essential information, such as technical factors settings, image receptor size, patient positioning techniques, respiration instructions, and central ray angulation. You can also find image quality points and details about the structures demonstrated in imaging, making it a comprehensive tool for anyone in the field.

In addition to these directions, the app offers suggested technical factor settings for digital imaging systems for most positions, except nephrotomography. You can easily inspect representative radiographic images, which can be enlarged for a closer look. There is even an enlargeable photograph of a properly positioned human model, showing the collimated area of interest and the central ray entry point to help you visualize the correct setup.

For each position, the app includes a helpful NOTE tab. This feature lets you save techniques, special terms, or additional helpful information that you may want to remember. If you want to keep things organized, the My Routines feature allows you to group selected positions into a saved routine so you can access them quickly when you need them. There’s also a My Notes function available, which lets you save notes unrelated to any specific position.

The app has been built according to the ARRT content specifications, ensuring it includes nearly all entry-level radiographic positions needed for certification. You'll also find optional radiographic positions that might be useful in clinical practice. These optional positions are recognized as handy references by the authors and other educational colleagues, even though they are not listed in the ARRT Radiography Content.

The instructions draw upon the most recent ASRT Radiography Curriculum and various national positioning texts. The content is created by two Ph.D. radiography educators, both with over 30 years of teaching experience. Their expertise ensures that you have access to reliable and accurate educational resources for radiography.

Overall, iRadTech is a convenient guide for positioning patients and serves as a valuable study aid for radiography students. It also acts as a great reference and review tool for technologists and clinical instructors, making it an essential resource for anyone involved in medical imaging. With this app, you gain a deeper understanding of radiographic positioning and improve your skills. Whether you're studying or working professionally, iRadTech helps you excel in your practice.
