The implementation of a Quality Assurance (QA) programme in orthodontic radiography is designed to improve the quality of the resultant radiographs and to reduce the number of repeat exposures. This is particularly desirable in orthodontic practice where the majority of patients are young and therefore more at risk from the detrimental effects of X-rays. A programme is described and QA tests are given that may be applied in the surgery. Particular emphasis is placed on QA measures for extraoral radiography, since this is frequently undertaken in the treatment of the orthodontic patient.
正畸放射摄影中质量保证(QA)计划的实施旨在提高所得放射照片的质量,并减少重复曝光的次数。这在正畸实践中尤为可取,因为大多数患者是年轻人,因此更容易受到X射线有害影响的风险。本文描述了一个计划,并给出了可在诊所应用的QA测试。特别强调了口外放射摄影的QA措施,因为在正畸患者的治疗中经常进行口外放射摄影。
