  1. Chapter 3 The Respiratory System

  2. Objectives • Identify anatomy on diagrams and radiographs • Describe the physiology of the respiratory system • Explain how pathologies of the respiratory system affect the patient throughout their life • Describe the various pathologic condition affecting the respiratory system and the radiographic manifestations • Explain how a specific pathologic process will affect the technical factors that the technologist must consider

  3. Objectives—(cont.) • Explain how various imaging modalities used in the diagnosis of pathology of the respiratory system helps in diagnosis
