Post COVID-19 trends in simulation use within diagnostic radiography and radiation therapy education.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Simulation is used within medical radiation science training. Recent global events and simulation resource uptake has led to significant changes. The aim of this study was to capture post COVID-19 trends and activity of simulation-based education (SBE) in diagnostic radiography and radiation therapy.

Methods

An online survey was designed to investigate the role of simulation within diagnostic radiography and radiation therapy education. Survey design was based on literature and experience within the research team. Questions were based around access and use of simulation, future trends and the effects of COVID-19. Participants were diagnostic radiography and/or radiation therapy educators. Data captured in this study was undertaken in March 2022 and compared with prev
