Abstract
Radiography has seen most development over the last 30 years with the
evolution of new technologies, but perhaps more significantly changes in
education models and radiographer roles. The development of advanced
and consultant posts has facilitated the growth of the profession, although
the evidence base is still evolving.
Through a number of research projects this thesis will explore the growth in
the radiography evidence base with specific reference to the extending role
of the radiographer in image interpretation. Parallel clinical and academic
developments have provided evidence of a scholarly profession which is
slowly establishing its place through publication and a growing research
base.
