Radiographer reporting is an essential component of imaging across the United Kingdom. Since the previous policy and practice guidance in 2004 the role and contribution of reporting radiographers has changed significantly. The move to imaging networks further reinforces the need for consistency in scope of practice and clinical governance for radiographer reporting.
This guidance provides a consistent, evidence-based template for planning a reporting service, resourcing, clinical governance, preceptorship, volume and frequency of reporting, a peer learning framework and expected standards.
Developed for North Central and East London, this framework and standards will help reduce unwarranted variation.
Consistency in practice could help maximise the contribution of radiographer reporting.
放射技师报告是英国各地影像诊断的重要组成部分。自 2004 年出台上一份政策和实践指南以来,报告放射技师的角色和贡献发生了重大变化。向影像网络的转变进一步强调了在实践范围和临床治理方面保持报告放射技师一致性的必要性。
本指南为规划报告服务、资源配置、临床治理、导师制、报告数量和频率、同行学习框架和预期标准提供了一个一致的、基于证据的模板。
本框架和标准专为伦敦中北部和东部地区制定,将有助于减少不必要的差异。
实践中的一致性有助于最大限度地发挥报告放射技师的作用。
