Critical care patients present with or develop conditions that require imaging with a variety of radiographic methods. Technological advances such as the introduction of digital imaging instead of screen-film radiography have improved image resolution, readability, management, and portability of results while maintaining confidentiality of patient information. Radiographic imaging in the critical care unit is an integral part of patient management. It is imperative that the critical care nurse be cognizant of radiographic studies and thus be able to collaborate with all health care providers in the administration of quality patient care.
重症监护患者会出现或发展出需要使用多种放射成像方法进行检查的病症。诸如引入数字成像而非屏-片放射摄影等技术进步，在保持患者信息保密性的同时，提高了图像分辨率、可读性、管理便利性及结果的便携性。重症监护病房的放射成像检查是患者管理的一个重要组成部分。重症监护护士必须了解放射学检查，从而能够在提供优质患者护理方面与所有医疗服务提供者协作。
