Abstract:

Radiologic technologists, who perform imaging examinations, are responsible for precisely situating patients and for assuring that a quality demonstrative image is created. For the images to be deciphered accurately by a radiologist, the imaging examination must be appropriately performed. Certain qualities can make their commitments less difficult to perform and can help in satisfying their patients. There are two qualities that can perceive the lead of a medicinal services authority-- professional and personal qualities. This study focuses on the development of the professional and personal qualities of radiologic technologists. The respondents of the study were 30 registered radiologic technologists in two selected private hospitals in Region IV-A. A descriptive correlative design was employed in this study. Descriptive design was applied to describe the professional and personal qualities of radiologic technologists and to examine the relationship between those variables. Frequency distribution, weighted mean, and Pearson product correlation were used to statistically test the gathered data. Results showed that the measurement profile was not connected with the individual attributes of a person. There were couple of attributes between the personal and professional qualities which were related with each other.
