title: Parental participation in pediatric radiographic procedures: help or hindrance?
abstract: Our institution has adopted a policy that restricts parents' participation in the radiographic procedure of their child to special cases only. The pros and cons of parental participation are presented by reporting on surveys taken of technologists and parents. The article also offers suggestions on dealing with the irate or frightened parent.
