This unit integrates students' previously developed applied research knowledge and clinical skill sets within the professional clinical context. Students utilise the various research process elements and medical imaging clinical practice knowledge to develop enhanced skills to exercise professional judgement. They reflect upon advanced radiographic practice within an interconnected and integrated nature of medical imaging sciences in a culturally diverse context. Also, develop personal and professional confidence by using an evidence-based inquiry led approach in evaluating the veracity of research claims, to understand current trends in medical imaging research and inform on best clinical practice to ensure quality health outcomes.
1. Critically review and evaluate health and scientific research and justify its application in clinical medical imaging and within quality health outcomes context;
2. Analyse current and future advanced evidence based radiographic practice trends and ongoing professional developments within medical radiation sciences;
3. Integrate experience and synthesise current literature within medical imaging, in an interdisciplinary and healthcare context; and
4. Scientifically communicate health and evidence based scientific research outcomes, the moral, ethical and legal responsibilities of researchers and potential impact on evidence based clinical practice, health and society.
