摘要

A multi-disciplinary team of professionals applied ergonomic tools, and principles to investigate reports of musculoskeletal injuries among Medical Radiation Technologists (MRT), working in a designated X-ray imaging suite in an academic acute care hospital. Following this investigation, a proposal was submitted for the purchase of new X-ray equipment. This study demonstrates how end-users applied ergonomic and human factor principles during the new equipment selection process.
