METHOD: The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists distributed an MR practice analysis questionnaire to a random sample of 1000 registered MR technologists. Task statements were assessed to determine the type and frequency of procedures performed by MR technologists. RESULTS: Of the 121 task statements collected, the author analyzed 78 tasks and found 4 meaningful factors accounting for 47.86% of the total variance. In addition, 3 specialty areas emerged in separate reviews of the tasks listed in each of the 4 factors. CONCLUSIONS: Using factor analysis to assess the data, vascular/cardiovascular imaging, central nervous system imaging and musculoskeletal imaging were identified as specialty areas. |
