Patient Confidence, Convincement & Positive Attitude Influencing the Quality Radio Visuographic Images

Abstract

Introduction: Patient motivation and counseling play a key role in obtaining high-quality radiographs, as patient cooperation directly affects diagnostic accuracy. Age, education, and occupation are important factors that may influence the quality of radiographic outcomes. Materials and Methods: A total of 150 patients were included in the study and divided into three age groups: 18–29 years, 30–44 years, and above 45 years. Information regarding their education and occupation was also collected. All patients underwent radiographic procedures, and the quality of the radiographs was carefully assessed. Procedure: Patients were given proper instructions and counseling prior to radiographic exposure to improve their understanding and cooperation. Radiographs were then evaluated for clarity, positioning, and overall diagnostic value, and findings were compared across different groups. Results: The study showed that patients above 45 years had radiographs of comparatively lower quality when compared with the younger age groups. Education and occupation were also observed to influence patient cooperation and the resulting radiographic quality. Conclusion: Patient age, education, and occupation significantly affect the quality of radiographs. Older patients demonstrated more difficulty in producing good-quality radiographs. This highlights the importance of patient motivation and counseling as effective measures to enhance cooperation and achieve reliable diagnostic imaging.
