Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly growing profession that shows continued promise for diagnostic imaging in various disciplines, including dermatology and pathology. The benefits of AI, however, extend beyond the imaging department as radiation oncology departments begin to automate labor-intensive treatment planning processes. Given the increase in interest and research concerning AI, radiologic technologists must become familiar with AI terminology, current and potential applications, challenges, and patient perspectives.
To investigate the level of noise that magnetic resonance (MR) technologists are exposed to during daily tasks, and prevalence of hearing loss among MR technologists.

Decibel levels at the scanner control panel were measured and recorded at clinical facilities. A survey was distributed to MR technologists, which included questions about demographics, workplace habits, and self-reported hearing loss.

Technologists are exposed to decibel levels higher than U.S. government recommended occupational limits; however, these are for very short periods, resulting in an average projected 8-hour noise dose of 1.68%. Statistical analysis of survey results showed no association between time spent working in an MR imaging department (
= .111); however, results did show an association between entering the scan room during image acquisition and hearing loss (
= .005).

At times, technologists are exposed to decibel levels exceeding the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommended limits; however, the average findings indicate that there is a low risk of hearing damage from working at the control panel. see more Statistical analysis revealed an association between entering the scan room and hearing loss; therefore, individuals entering the scan room for any reason should be wearing hearing protection, even for short periods.

Risks of exposure to high occupational decibel levels should be monitored continually. This study provides a foundation for future research studies, such as longitudinal analysis of hearing loss in MR technologists.

To illustrate the need for further research dedicated to the development of clinical leadership competencies in the medical imaging curriculum.

Online journals and literature were searched to acquire published peer-reviewed articles associated with leadership, clinical competency, and curriculum design.

Studies related to leadership, mentoring, and clinical competency were found in allied health and medical imaging literature. However, few empirical studies addressed the development of clinical leadership and competency in the field of medical imaging.

The development and integration of clinical leadership competencies into the medical imaging curriculum are vital to the profession's progression. Although medical imaging faculty and clinical staff practice clinical leadership throughout the performance of their duties, there is no formalized integration of these competencies in the medical imaging curriculum. Using components of distributed leadership and mentoring while situating these competencies in the educational construct of experiential learning will allow medical imaging students to meet the health care industry's needs and more fully participate in the practice of clinical leadership.

There is an opportunity to explore the development of clinical leadership competencies that align with mentoring practices and the enhancement of clinical competency in medical imaging students.

To design and evaluate a survey instrument to quantitatively examine radiologic technologists' perception of radiation safety culture.

A survey instrument with determinants related to radiation actions and dimensions of radiation safety (RADS) was designed through a multisequential process involving content and scale validity and internal reliability. A 6-member panel evaluated content validity, and 425 radiologic technologists participated in the study to determine the reliability of the survey instrument items and determinant scales.

The 35-items in the survey instrument were found to be valid (content validity index = 0.995) and reliable (α = .94). In addition, 10 determinant scales also were found to be reliable (α = .70-.84). The scales included teamwork in imaging, teamwork across imaging stakeholders, questioning attitude, feedback loops, organizational learning, leadership actions, nonpunitive response, error reporting, radiation policy, and overall perception of radiation safety.

The survey iiency can strengthen radiation safety culture in medical imaging.
To review authorship details of Australian Society of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy (ASMIRT) conference accepted abstracts for medical imaging and radiation therapy disciplines; identify the Australian or international institutions that submitted abstracts; and to determine the rates of ASMIRT conference abstracts to papers and their citation number.

Retrospective analysis of oral and poster conference abstracts published in the Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences (JMRS) from 2015 through 2017 identified 581 Australian and international abstracts. Of these, 513 Australian abstracts were analyzed using Google Scholar, PubMed, and Google databases. Abstracts were allocated to medical imaging or radiation therapy disciplines. Abstract titles, key words, institutions, and author names were used to search for peer-reviewed papers. Papers were authenticated through open access, publicly available author information, or library access.

During a 3-year period, medical imaging and radiation therapy avengs is a challenging process but essential to sharing medical knowledge and improving clinical practice.

The rate of ASMIRT conference abstract to full publication was at the lower end of reported literature. This finding provides a benchmark for future studies on abstract-to-publication rates in Australia and globally.
