Reporting child abuse.
This article reviews some representative state statutes in special reference to the responsibilities of the radiographer, in the hope to give radiographers and those in charge of departments of radiology a means to determine their liabilities according to their own state laws and institutional guidelines. It is not intended to serve as specific legal advice, but rather as a guide to radiographers and department managers.
