The paradox of imaging technology: A review of the literature
چکیده انگلیسی

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to review the social scientific literature associated with medical imaging technology.MethodsAn extensive search of published studies in nursing, psychology and anthropology was undertaken to support the radiography specific literature.ResultsFollowing a broad definition of technology and its profound influence on society, an analysis of imaging literature revealed a complex relationship between technology and human interactions. Examples are cited for CT, MRI and ultrasound.ConclusionIt is suggested that any attempt to understand imaging technology must place at its centre the perspectives of patients and radiographers. Scientific descriptors must be balanced with equal deliberation given to ‘soft technology’.
