Who is considered the legal owner of radiographs?

Patient
Dentist
Radiographer
Receptionist

The correct answer is: Dentist

A radiograph is a type of medical image that contains sensitive information about a patient's health. As such, it is important to understand who has legal ownership of these images. While the patient may physically possess the radiograph, they are not considered the legal owner. This is because the images were taken and developed by the dentist, who has the legal right to keep and use them for treatment and diagnostic purposes. This decision is supported by the fact that the dentist is the primary healthcare provider and responsible for the patient's care. The other options, such as the radiographer or receptionist, do not have the same level of responsibility or involvement in the patient's care and would not be considered the legal owner of the radiographs.
