Abstract Introduction There is an increasing emphasis on exploring ways to improve students' transition from the classroom into clinical environment. Diagnostic radiography (DR) students undergo rigorous theoretical and practical training before they are exposed It has been found that when DR commence learning in workplace for very first time, experience difficulties this transition. At site of investigation, a newly integrated dedicated preparedness (CP) programme was offered; however,...
Background. The administration of intravenous contrast media (IVCM) is one the key areas currently under investigation for inclusion in South African (SA) radiographers’ scope practice. However, radiographers to legally administer IVCM, training guidelines must first be identified, developed and accredited by Health Professions Council SA. Objective. To investigate radiologists’ perspective knowledge, skills medicolegal required IVCM provide input development national guidelines. Methods. A...
IntroductionMedical imaging examinations that make use of ionising radiation provide valuable information towards patient management. Literature suggests there is a significant rise in the number referrals for such examinations. The concept "individual dose tracking" (IPRDT) introduced to optimise monitoring. Many countries across globe explored and implemented methods enhance promote justification optimisation principles essential safety. In South Africa (SA), however, attention IPRDT...
South Africa (SA) is portrayed as a developing country facing many socio-economic challenges. Service-Learning (SL) considered an integral part of work-integrated learning (WIL) whereby students are provided opportunity to experience the real world work by putting practice theory that they have been taught. In context this paper, SL embedded in undergraduate curriculum medical imaging and therapeutic sciences (MITS) SA, form community project (SLCP). Similar projects permit engage with...

Background: South Africa (SA), in 2021, experienced a wave of civil unrest following political events that led to mass looting and the destruction property. Civil unrests, among other disruptions, have been seen cause ripple effects on healthcare education, particularly for radiography students who undergo work integrated learning within hospitals universities, even during these times unrest. Aim: This study aimed explore describe undergraduate diagnostic students’ experience occurred SA...
