A Multimedia Strategy to Integrate Introductory Broad-Based Radiation Science Education in US Medical Schools

Martha S. Linet et al.

Summary: US physicians often lack formal radiation science education, leading to inappropriate ordering of radiological procedures. A proposed educational program aims to provide foundational knowledge on radiation science, radiology, and radiation protection, as well as practical experience in various radiological procedures. The curriculum also emphasizes patient-centered communication and evidence-based guidelines for maximizing benefit and minimizing risk.
