title: The patient-care gap.
abstract: Although adequate attention is paid to technical principles and equipment in the radiologic technology classroom and supporting literature, little if any is devoted to the patient. The humanity of the patient and his primacy in the profession demand that in radiologic technology education and practice he be given the consideration he should and must have whenever he is in the hands of radiologic technology personnel.
