Abstract
A survey of 25 hospitals in Nigeria has been conducted to assess the level of compliance to the Commission for European Communities (CEC) criteria for good radiographic practice in four adult radiographic examinations. Chest, skull, abdominal and lumbar spine radiographic examinations were assessed. Using a simple scoring system of ‘0’ for unfulfilled and ‘1’ for fulfilled criteria, the results show an average compliance level of 50 ± 8% for chest, 57 ± 8% for skull, 56 ± 10% for abdomen and 51 ± 7% for lumbar spine radiography. Findings show that the level of compliance could be corrected by the adoption of quality control programmes in the country.
