Coming up at #ASMIRT2023: @CroakeyNews team will be tweeting from the Advancing Planar Radiography and Patient Centred Care streams, incl work from @MYradres & @AmandaBoldersto - follow @AlisonSBarrett @WePublicHealth & many others via our Twitter List twitter.com/i/lists/164427…
If you wanted to read more about @benbravery and his efforts to bridge the gap between patients and clinicians in health care, check our #ASMIRT2023 preview: croakey.org/your-everyday-…
#ASMIRT2023 is hearing from @AmandaBoldersto, presenting on the work of @QueeringCancer which she co-founded for LGBTQ2S+ cancer patients, and on: Coming out or staying in? Navigating diverse sexual and gender identities at work – here’s our story: croakey.org/improving-canc…
You can also read more from @AmandaBoldersto in this #ASMIRT2023 Q&A, incl how medical radiation practitioners in Australia could champion for LGBTQ2S+ consumers/patients

conference.asmirt.org/2023/program/a… Image
Some takeaways from @AmandaBoldersto on being a champion for #LGBTIQ2S patients:

Educate yrself (if you need) re the challenges the LGBTQ2S+ community faces. Take a course/do some reading re impact of health inequities, learn terminology & concepts (e.g. pronouns) #ASMIRT2023
"Don’t make assumptions! You can’t tell your patient’s sexual orientation or gender identity by looking at them. Use non-gendered language when possible, ask patient how they like to be addressed, listen to how they describe self, relationships and body parts. "@AmandaBoldersto
. @AmandaBoldersto presenting on the founding of @QueeringCancer - an amazing resource #ASMIRT2023 - designed for patients, but been inundated with requests for info from practitioners Image
Multiple health inequities for #LGBTIQ2S people: many have had neg experiences which can affect how and when they subsequently access health care, and how they interact with health care profs. Access for trans, non-binary people is partic difficult. @AmandaBoldersto #ASMIRT2023
Inequity of access and quality of care have big impacts for #LGBTIQ2S people/communities, says @AmandaBoldersto #ASMIRT2023 Image
Disparities in cancer incidence:
▪ Lesbian & bisexual women have greater risk of breast cancer and cervical cancer
▪ Gay and bisexual men with HIV: greater risk of anal cancer

Gaps in evidence, eg for trans people

@AmandaBoldersto #ASMIRT2023
“Being lesbian made an already traumatic
situation way worse. I constantly felt ...like I
always had to out myself and explain my role in her care and her life”, HT @AmandaBoldersto #ASMIRT2023

. @AmandaBoldersto says UK study found:

- constant heteronormative assumptions
- stress with coming out
- lack of sensitivity from HCPs
- less satisfaction with care
- high levels of isolation
- big gap in LGBTQ2+ relevant/focused resources

Also in this session, @MikaelaDoig is presenting on: Championing change for paediatric radiation therapy
patients: co-producing a digital quality of life
assessment platform - see this related work pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36010929/.
Jemma Walsh is reporting on a pilot study of a developed patient reported experience survey tool. It was born of increasingly more complex radiation therapy, where tech advancements are often demanding more active patient involvement. #ASMIRT2023 Image
Also on patient-centred care (a focus at #ASMIRT2023's opening plenaries), Kylie Auld & Imalda Devaparanam are reporting on a collaboration in medical radiations to include lived experiences of healthcare into curriculum #ASMIRT2023 #empathy #compassion Image
Looking forward also to reporting later on presentation by Edel Doyle on the role of radiographic imaging in disaster victim identification (which has seen massive improvement over past two decades) and efforts to improve screening of children in child abuse cases #ASMIRT2023

A thread now to catch up on discussions around artificial intelligence (AI) - a hot topic everywhere, including at #ASMIRT2023.

See some of the issues raised in our 'future of medical radiation sciences' Q&A piece
croakey.org/what-does-the-… #ASMIRT2023
Interestingly, @theage @smh have run a piece this weekend by @angusthomson_: 'A new breed of AI is changing healthcare. But it comes with a warning '

($ paywall) #ASMIRT2023
theage.com.au/national/a-new…
It quotes an Aust study of safety events involving AI-assisted tech (reported to @US_FDA) by @AIHI_MQ led by @EnricoCoiera @David_Lyell @YingWang_CHI @FarahMagrabi who warn "we just need to be taking the safety of these systems really seriously"

Gary Denham is a radiographer at @HNEHealth, with a number of presentations for #ASMIRT2023, incl (related to Edel Doyle previously): Beyond the skeletal survey: how modern neuroimaging is revealing the effects of childhood maltreatment
Denham says it's well established that childhood maltreatment/abuse is detrimental to mental health & a major risk factor for most psychiatric disorders. Can also lead to a range of behavioural problems & alter the structure/function of the developing brain #ASMIRT2023
Child maltreatment/abuse is also associated with impairments to IQ, academic achievement, working memory, emotional regulation and inhibitory control - Denham #ASMIRT2023

Interesting session coming up now #ASMIRT2023: Champions of Change, to be closed with a panel discussion on patient centred care Image
And just as interesting in the other plenary on application of AI (artificial intelligence), which will also end in a panel discussion - ft @DrKEHawk @DrEMRohren, Phillip Chlap, moderated by @DrGeoffCurrie #ASMIRT2023 Image
Just noting, @AlisonSBarrett and I (@mariemcinerney) are covering #ASMIRT2023 remotely: tweeting from presentations, interviews etc, not live in the room. We are v grateful for the generosity of speakers who have shared their work with us.

Catching up re earlier #ASMIRT2023 session from @CMalamateniou on: Artificial Intelligence is changing
radiography: What should we do? (Pic: ASMIRT) Image
"AI is just another tool we need to use effectively & responsibly to solve real clinical problems; radiographers are frontrunners in this race, together with all other profs working in medical imaging, radiotherapy & nuclear medicine." @CMalamateniou told Croakey #ASMIRT2023
"AI is only as clever & equitable as the data we feed it with; because of the way it works, it has massive scalability & the potential to revolutionise medicine and radiography; it can also create massive problems if we fail to use it right." @CMalamateniou #ASMIRT2023
