View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
The goal of this feasibility study is to learn if individuals without formal radiology training can safely acquire adequate x-ray images following a structured training and real-time remote guidance from a licensed radiologic technologist (RT). The main question it aims to answer is: 1. Can trained non-radiology staff, with real-time remote supervision, obtain x-ray images that meet preset technical quality standards for each required view? 2. Can these staff perform x-ray exams safely, as shown by low operator exposure, few image re-takes, and good adherence to radiation safety protocols? 3. What is the mental and physical workload for the non-radiology staff and the remote RT during the imaging process, as measured by the NASA Raw Task Load Survey (RTLX) after each session?
