"The decline in positioning skills" (according to a radiographer)

A post from the blog of a radiographer who is now a PACS adminstrator:

....recently I have noticed that positioning skills have been declining or Technologists just don’t seem to care much anymore.

I have pondered as to why this seems to be happening and have come up with a few theories that I will list below in no particular order as I think they all have a part in the decline of the skills.....

In summary, the main reasons he gives are:

1. Modern radiographer training.
   
2. The effects of PACS.
3. Radiologists accepting poor quality images.
4. CT and MRI (discussed in the comments to the main article).
