Abstract The aim is to Evaluation Compliance with Standard Posterior - Anterior (Pa) Chest Techniques Methodology- A prospective Evaluation of compliance with standard posterior-anterior (PA) chest techniques was conducted for 8 months. During this time the data of experimented images were collected on a daily basis along with the clinical history of patients and relevant vital signs also without ignoring the maintenance of equipment and factors adjustments of scanning parameters and the technical skill of the chest techniques used in the particular scan of the particular patients. The result- This study was conducted on a sample of 35 patients in the radiology department. Firstly it is observed whether patients were given instructions by radiographers or not, 33 (i.e., 94.3%) patients were instructions during X-ray while 2 (i.e., 5.7%) patients were not given any instructions during X-Ray. Then, it was observed that whether patients were informed to hold their breath during X-Ray or not, 32 (i.e., 91.4%) patients were asked to hold their breath during the time of X-Ray, whether 3(i.e., 8.6%) patients were not informed about it. At third, it was observed whether patients were able to do scapula rotated or not, 31 (i.e., 88.6%) patients were able to do so, but 4 (i.e., 11.4%) patients were unable to do so. Then it was observed whether the radiographer used marker or not during X-Ray, 28 (i.e., 80%) times radiographer used marker while 7 (i.e., 20%) times marker was not used. At last, it was observed whether the appropriate distance was there between patients and X-Ray tube or not, 31 (i.e., 88.6%) times there was appropriate FFD, but FFD of 4 (i.e., 11.4%) patients was not appropriate. Conclusion- It could be concluded that the compliance with standard Posterior- anterior (PA) chest techniques were high.
