IIRRT Member Resources Summaries
Radiography Journal Access
IIRRT members receive access to Radiography, the leading journal for diagnostic and Radiation Therapy. The journal publishes high-quality clinical, scientific, and educational research, promoting evidence-based practice across the professions. Access to Radiography keeps members informed of the latest innovations, best practices, and emerging techniques, supporting safe, effective, and efficient patient care. By engaging with its content, members enhance their clinical skills, maintain professional standards, and stay current with the latest developments in practice.
DetectedX Image Interpretation
The partnership between the IIRRT and DetectedX aims to improve image interpretation for Radiographers through a world-first innovative educational solution. It utilises a cloud-based system which allows Radiographers to test their skills on chest, abdomen, musculoskeletal, neurological, and trauma images. Radiographers can listen to lectures and then evaluate images in the same way as they would clinically at full resolution using a state-of-the-art. Since expert consensus is available for each image, on completion, users are presented with their performance score based on how well their judgement aligned with that of experts In addition, an individual-specific image file is generated so that users can review their decisions. DetectedX AI algorithms provide tailored educational and feedback modules to support learning.
iRefer Guidelines
The Royal College of Radiologist’s iRefer guidelines have been the leading resource for evidence-based imaging referrals since 1989. By providing clear, practical recommendations, iRefer helps clinicians make safe and appropriate imaging decisions, ensuring that patients receive the right investigation at the right time. Access to this trusted guidance promotes consistency across services, reduces unnecessary imaging, and supports the highest standards of patient care. For members, inclusion of iRefer represents a valuable tool to strengthen professional practice, demonstrate commitment to quality, and align with nationally recognised best practice guidelines.
