Can retrospectively fusing SPECT to CT images reduce radiation doses in myocardial perfusion imaging? (2023)
Journal Article
Bishop, A., King, S., Stace, S., & Elliott, J. (2023). Can retrospectively fusing SPECT to CT images reduce radiation doses in myocardial perfusion imaging?. Radiography, 29(2), 327-332. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radi.2023.01.008

Introduction: To establish if the CT dataset acquired during the stress element of myocardial perfusion imaging can be fused to the subsequent rest scan to reduce radiation doses from these procedures. Methods: 86 rest scans were processed and evalua... Read More about Can retrospectively fusing SPECT to CT images reduce radiation doses in myocardial perfusion imaging?.

A systematic review of non-pharmacologic interventions to reduce anxiety in adults in advance of diagnostic imaging procedures (2020)
Journal Article
King, S., Woodley, J., & Walsh, N. (2021). A systematic review of non-pharmacologic interventions to reduce anxiety in adults in advance of diagnostic imaging procedures. Radiography, 27(2), 688-697. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radi.2020.09.018

© 2020 The College of Radiographers Objectives: Anticipation of a diagnostic imaging (DI) procedure, particularly one involving advanced technology, can provoke feelings of anxiety in patients. Anxiolytics (anxiety reducing drugs) can be used to redu...

The RADSearching Group: A community for all radiography learners (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Woodley, J., St. John-Matthews, J., King, S., Bennett, C., & Chianese, J. (2018, July). The RADSearching Group: A community for all radiography learners. Poster presented at UK Radiological and Radiation Oncology Congress, Liverpool, England

Background This poster will report on an initiative carried out by several academics and their students to embed research more firmly into the curriculum. This came about as a result of internal funding for teaching and learning innovation at the a... Read More about The RADSearching Group: A community for all radiography learners.
