The radiographer also benefits when the patient dose is minimized as a result of less scatter off the patient.

The advantages of the BERT method are:1. it does not imply radiation risk; it is simply a means for comparison.2. it emphasizes that radiation is an innate part of our environment.3. the answer given in terms of BERT is easy for the patient to comprehend.A.  1 and 2 only B.  1 and 3 only C.  2 and 3 only D.  1, 2, and 3
