Conventional radiography in the diagnosis of asbestos-related disease
Radiol Clin North Am.
1992 Nov.
Abstract
Standard chest radiography, despite its limitations, remains an important means of evaluating the asbestos-exposed worker. Because of its wide availability, low radiation dose, and low cost, it will continue to be the standard imaging procedure for the screening of asbestos-exposed populations.
