Abstract: Radiographers working in the Department of Radiology,University of Uyo Teaching Hospital (UUTH) Uyo started using Carestream Computed Radiography (CR) system in November 2012. The CR system has capability for image post-processing following radiographic exposure. Post-processing parameters include adjustment of contrast, latitude, brightness and cropping of images. These parameters may produce a final image that is quite different from what was initially acquired. The need for post-processing and the parameter adjusted can be an indicator to collimation andExposure factors (kVp, mAs), adopted by the radiographer during image acquisition. Aim: To assess the influence of radiographic image post-processing on radiographers' attitude towards adopting proper radiographic technique..........
