A digital training tool on radiographer chest image interpretation performance

Research output: Other outputpeer-review

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the impact and effectiveness of a digital training tool on participant performance. Methods and Materials Reporting radiographers initiating chest image interpretation training and reporting radiographers trained in musculoskeletal (MSK) image interpretation were recruited. Outcome measures were completed at baseline and 9 months later. Participants from both cohorts were allocated to either intervention or control groups. The intervention group were given unlimited access to a digital training tool. Outcome measures included interpretation of 20 chest images whilst using eye tracking technology and voice recording; confidence level on their diagnosis and a questionnaire on image interpretation experience and eye tracking technology. Improvements were seen in interpretation performance and confidence (p
