This study shows that e-learning effectively enhances breast imaging knowledge for radiographers. The course improved both patient care and image interpretation skills, demonstrating its value in continuing professional development.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging Education
  • Radiography Professional Development
  • E-learning in Healthcare

Background:

  • Continuing education for radiographers is crucial for maintaining high standards in healthcare.
  • E-learning offers a flexible and accessible platform for health professional training.
  • Evaluating the effectiveness of e-learning is essential to validate its impact on practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess an e-learning course on breast imaging for radiographers.
  • To evaluate learner reaction, knowledge gain, and behavioral changes using Kirkpatrick's model.
  • To validate the effectiveness of e-learning in radiographer continuing education.

Main Methods:

  • An e-learning course on breast imaging (mammography technique and interpretation) was developed.

  • Learner satisfaction was measured via questionnaire; knowledge gain was assessed using pre- and post-tests.
  • Behavioral changes in the workplace were evaluated 6 months post-course completion.
  • Main Results:

    • 97% of learners rated the course content and delivery as excellent.
    • A statistically significant knowledge gain of 4% was observed (p=0.001).
    • Learners reported improved patient care (communication, positioning) and image interpretation skills.

    Conclusions:

    • E-learning provides statistically significant knowledge gains for radiographers.
    • The breast imaging e-learning course positively impacts mammography education and skills development.
    • This approach enhances both student and practicing radiographers' competencies.
