The readout thickness versus the measured thickness for a range of screen film mammography (SFM) and full-field digital mammography (FFDM) units (2011)
Journal Article
Hauge, I., Hogg, P., Szczepura, K., Connolly, P., McGill, G., & Mercer, C. (2011). The readout thickness versus the measured thickness for a range of screen film mammography (SFM) and full-field digital mammography (FFDM) units. Medical Physics, 39(1), 263-271. https://doi.org/10.1118/1.3663579

PURPOSE: To establish a simple method to determine breast readout accuracy on mammography units. METHODS: A thickness measuring device (TMD) was used in conjunction with a breast phantom. This phantom had compression characteristics similar to human...

Journal Article
Hogg, P., Swire, V., Orlinksi, M., Blindell, P., Vinjamuri, S., & Szczepura, K. (2011). Prototype software for the clinical evaluation of In-111 SPECT-CT dotatate images conducted prior to and immediately after Y-90 dotatate radionuclide therapy. European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 38(Sup. 2), S447. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00259-011-1913-y

Aim and Background Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are heterogenous and frequently express cell membrane specific peptide receptors such as somatostatin receptors (SSTRs). Radiolabelled receptor binding of somatostatin analogues can guide radioact...

Analysis of plain X-ray and low resolution CT gonad dose arising from supplementary imaging after bone scanning (2011)
Journal Article
Kelly, J., Szczepura, K., Hogg, P., & Tootell, A. (2011). Analysis of plain X-ray and low resolution CT gonad dose arising from supplementary imaging after bone scanning. European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 38(Sup. 2), S445. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00259-011-1913-y

Introduction:Bone scintigraphy has long been the first stop for patients undergoing investigation of bone metastases. The procedure is recognised as being highly sensitive to the disease however this corresponds to a low specificity. As a result s...

Creating and validating self-efficacy scales for students (2011)
Journal Article
Kitching, J., Cassidy, S., Eachus, P., & Hogg, P. (2011). Creating and validating self-efficacy scales for students. Radiologic technology, 83(1), 10-19

Purpose: student radiographers must possess certain abilities to progress in their training; these can be assessed in various ways. Bandura’s social cognitive theory identifies self-efficacy as a key psychological construct with regard to how people... Read More about Creating and validating self-efficacy scales for students.

The European Association of Nuclear Medicine Technologist Committee (EANMTC) and the Society of Nuclear Medicine Technologist Section (SNMTS) meet biannually to consider matters of mutual importance. These meetings are held during the SNM and EANM an... Read More about Euro-American discussion document on entry and advanced level practice in nuclear medicine.

Using mixed model research to evaluate the outcomes of a lean approach to the transformation of an orthopaedic radiology service (2011)
Thesis
Martin, A. Using mixed model research to evaluate the outcomes of a lean approach to the transformation of an orthopaedic radiology service. (Thesis). University of Salford

The purpose of the study was to explore the proposition that lean is an effective methodology for service improvement within a healthcare setting by evaluating the changes brought about by the application of lean tools to an orthopaedic radiology...
