Abstract:
The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare announced about the expansion of duties by the radiological technologists in team medical care in April, 2010, and the importance of image interpretation assistance by the radiological technologists became higher. In that respect, for improvement in ability of image interpretation assistance by the radiological technologists in emergency medicine, we developed a support package for learning of image interpretation assistance (support package) and evaluated the usefulness for learning of image interpretation assistance by questionnaires. The support package included digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) data of case, explainer video of urgent imaging findings, and DICOM viewer. In 100% of evaluators, the support package was useful for urgent imaging findings in emergency medicine. Moreover, 68.9% of the evaluators had an experience helped by learning to use the support package in the clinical site. In conclusion, we confirmed that the support package was useful for learning of image interpretation assistance by the radiological technologists.

Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...
Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic...
Positron Emission Tomography
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...
