                                     When children come in for x-rays, the team
                                     operates with the motto: As little radiation as
                                     possible. To help achieve excellent images on
                                     smaller, and sometimes wiggly patients, a pedia-
                                     poser positions children and babies (under 5 years
                                     old) so they are comfortable and also stationary.
                                     This eliminates re-takes, reducing radiation and

                                     saving time for our smallest patients and their
                                     families.

                                     Within an x-ray machine, the detector is a crucial
                                     component that captures the image created by
                                     the X-rays passing through the patient’s body. The

                                     detector holder is a mobile rack that positions the
                                     detector during an exam to ensure the best quality
                                     images, while keeping patients comfortable.

                                     Investing in this holder for GBGH will ensure
                                     the safety of our detectors (which are quite
                                     expensive) and ensure that our patients have a
                                     great experience when they get an x-ray. This is
                                     small investment for something that will make a big
                                     difference.
