초록

The author came to analize and get the following problems after researched radiographic quality in order to find out the necessary factors to improve in radiographs of frontal projection of the chest selected at random of the adult patients (1545 male, 1520 female) who had been examined in 4 departments of radiology of the general hospitals in Seoul and Kyungki area. 1. Problems of x-ray film or of radiographic cassette appeared in 2.97% radiographs on account of selection of the film size (except costophrenic sinus) (1.79%), poor screen-film contact (0.85%), light leakage of cassette (0,33%). 2. Problems of patients' positioning or breathing appeared in 16.57% radiographs of all because of overlapping of lung apex and clavicle (6.98%), overlapping of scapula and lung field (5.87%), asymmetrical projection of clavicles (1.76%), errors in positioning and breathing of the patient (1.96%). 3. Problems of x-ray exposure factors or film processing appeared in 22.25% radiographs because of over-density (2.64%), under-density (3.95%), fog (0.59%), demonstration density under clavicles or lung marking unsharply (3.82%), not clear of lung marking from breast region (0.94%), not clear the lung marking from the part overlapped of heart and lungs (3.92%), not clear the lung marking from the part overlapped of liver and lung (6.49%).
