What are the challenges of discussing radiation risk with patients and carers? Are there any specific patient demographics where this may be even more difficult? Who should discuss radiation risk with patients and carers, and at what stage of the patient pathway? How might healthcare professionals approach communicating radiation risk differently depending on the modality used and level of risk involved? Your evaluation should be supported by appropriate peer-reviewed reference sources and referenced using Vancouver referencing. It should be noted that the report should be written from literature searches, but hospital staff can also be approached for relevant guidance and policies.
