To meet the needs addressed by the World Health Organization for interprofessional education and collaborative practice and to ensure optimal integration of radiology into global health, a team approach can be used within educational partnerships.

摘要

To meet the needs addressed by the World Health Organization for interprofessional education and collaborative practice and to ensure optimal integration of radiology into global health, a team approach can be used within educational partnerships. Departments of radiology are composed of many professionals, including but not limited to radiologists, advanced practice providers, radiologic technologists, nurses, trainees, medical physicists, biomedical engineers, administrative leadership, and researchers. Starting with an initial assessment, stakeholders can establish goals to address gaps in radiology access. Then, a mutually agreed-upon plan can be implemented in a stepwise framework with measurable deliverables. To establish a comprehensive plan, all professional roles within the radiology team should be represented. By understanding the professional scope and roles of all members, the team can more effectively proceed with working toward improving human capacity, infrastructure, supply chain, and other needs.
