Radiographic imaging identifies a subject anatomy for radiographic image content and automatically identifies a subject’s position from one or more sensor signals. The imaging apparatus issues re-positioning guidance signals for re-positioning the patient. Signals are generated to set an imaging exposure technique and component positions according to data associated with the subject anatomy. A radiographic image of the subject is acquired according to the component and technique signals by automatically energizing the x-ray source. The acquired radiographic image is analyzed using trained logic to determine clinical diagnostic suitability of the image and to identify one or more abnormalities in the subject anatomy.
