The purpose of this study is to check the extent to which "instruction of physician or dentist" defined in the Medical Service Technologists, etc. Act is applied in relation to radiography examination procedures for radiological technologists. In addition, it is intended to present basic data on the requirement to revise the Medical Service Technologists, etc. Act in the radiological technologist's duty area and scope of work, The subjects of this study were radiological technologists with license, and the response data were collected after sending the questionnaire link written on the online questionnaire form. The final number of respondents were 1,018, and the response rate was 6.8%. Most of the negative responses were "I have never received 'instruction' for radiologic examination by a physician or dentist, including a radiologist in a medical environment." There were a high perception that "the professionalism in radiation examination on radiological technologists are higher than that of a physician or dentist." They answered that the current continuing education has a great impact on maintaining and continuing professionalism and learning new knowledge in the radiology field. In addition, the radiological technologists provide a very high level of education in areas related to radiography procedure ethics such as patient care, patient safety, and patient privacy protection, as well as specialized fields such as radiation-related examination methods, radiography examination dose, and patient exposure dose. Radiological technologists replied that they were receiving it consistently. In conclusion, in the current medical environment, the 'instruction' of a physician or dentist cannot be seen as being realistically performed. The phrase 'instruction' of a physician or dentist as defined in the Medical Service Technologists, etc. Act is considered inappropriate in respect of the fact that the state recognizes the qualifications of the medical service technologist through a license. It is thought that revision to a new term suitable for the current medical environment is necessary.

According to the changes of the medical environment of the times, it is necessary to discuss the issues of the doctor's medical guidance and to conduct continuous research so that alternatives can be prepared systematically. Furthermore, in order to enhance the professionalism of radiological technologists and to develop the medical technician system, the new Radiological Technologist Independent Act has been established, which contains the overall contents of the scope of work, professional qualifications, and specialized education of radiological technologists, and provides quality medical services to patients through professional procedures and treatment. In order to increase the level of medical care, the purpose, definition, mission, role, and scope of work specified in the Medical Act, Medical Service Technologists, etc. Act, the Enforcement Decree, and the Enforcement Rules were variously analyzed and new directions were presented. First, the definition of a medical technician should use a generic term so that the factors of conflict and prejudice could be resolved. Second, change the doctor's guide to doctor's prescription; and then legislate the authority to sign and write medical records after examination by radiological technologists, thereby prohibiting unlicensed technicians that seriously endanger patient safety. Third, an accurate definition of radiological technologists' roles should be established; not only selection and management of radiological technologists' work but also procedures and treatment for each radiology field should be specified to suit the current medical system. Fourth, a professional radiological technologists' qualification system and a specialized education system should be established in order to secure human resources that could provide patients trust in procedures and treatment based on professional knowledge and experience in the field of radiology. Fifth, the Education and Evaluation Institute should be operated in Korea education system to educate the professional knowledge and competency for students. In addition, it is necessary to in-depth analysis of foreign cases could be applied to the medical system and education system in Korea; it could strive to nurture systematic human resources.

본 연구의 목적은 방사선사의 직무를 분석하고, 현재의 방사선(학)과의 교육과정과 비교하여 방사선사 교육과정 개선과 개발의 방향을 제시하는 것이다. 데이컴(DACUM: Development A Curriculum) 방법으로 방사선사의 직무를 분석하였고, 분석 결과 방사선사의 직업은 직무(duty) 8개, 수행 작업(task)이 59개로 구성되었다. 중요도가 가장 높다고 인식한 임무는 '피폭관리(M=4.72)', 난이도가 가장 높다고 인식한 임무는 '방사선 치료(M=4.29)'였으며, 수행 빈도가 가장 높은 임무는 '방사선 검사(M=4.19)'였다. 직무분석 결과와 교육과정을 비교한 결과 첫째, '환자간호' 직무가 방사선사의 주요한 직무로 분석되었으나 환자간호 직무 수행을 위해 필요한 내용을 학습할 수 있는 교과목이 교육과정에 있는 학교는 전체 7개 학교 중 4곳(57.1%) 뿐이었다. 둘째, '심전도 검사하기', '체열진단 검사하기', '뇌혈류 초음파 검사하기' 등이 작업으로 분석되었으나 현 교육과정에서는 이런 작업에 대한 실무능력을 교육하는 교과목이 없었고, '비 전리 방사선 검사' 직무에 대한 작업 요소들도 고려되고 있지 않았다. 연구 결과로 학교교육과 실제 수행업무가 일치하지 않는 부분이 존재하는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 이론 중심의 대학교육이 현장업무를 수행하기 위한 실무능력을 갖추기에는 부족한 면이 있어 직무분석 결과를 반영한 교육과정을 편성할 필요가 있음을 시사한다.

As the institute of education teaching radiologic technology in Korea, different from others, junior college is the only institute which has been managed for it as a two-year educational course for 27 years since 1963 when it was established for the first time in our country irrespective of the needs of the times. But according to the development of medical equipment, variety of medical skill, increase of medical demands now a days, the supply of radiologic technology in modern medicine not only makes it advance as an inevitable factor but also broadens the area of its business systematically. Therefore, we got the following results after we had considered the necessity to lengthen the term of education and searched for the most reasonable way. 1. The term of study of the radiologic technologists in junior college must be lengthened to 3 years from 2 or 3 years regulated in the law of education. 2. In three-year curriculum, the subjects like basic medical science, science and engineering and ultramodern science, etc., which are lated to the new radiologic science must be taught in the junior colleges, and hospital practice also must be a compulsory subject in curriculum. 3. As the school years becomes longer, a lot of programs to make the study effective must be searched, researched and propelled forward.

Protective behavior of radiological technologists against radiation exposure is important to achieve reduction of the patient doses without compromising medical achievements. This study attempts to provide a basic model for the sophisticated intervention strategy that increases the level of the protective behavior of the technologists. The model was applied to real situations in Korea to demonstrate its utility. The results of this study are summarized as follows: First, the protective environment showed the highest relationship in the factors considered, r=0.637 (p<0.01). Secondly, the important factors were protective environment in environment characteristics, expectation for the protective behavior 0.228 (p<0.001), self-efficacy 0.142 (p<0.001), and attitude for the protective behavior 0.178 (p<0.001) in personal characteristics, and daily patient -0.112 (p<0.001) and number of the participation in the education session for the protective behavior 0.074 (p<0.05). Thirdly, the final protective behavior model by a path analysis method had direct influence on the attitude 0.171 (p<0.01) and environment 0.405 (p<0.01) for the protective behavior, self efficacy 0.122 (p<0.01), expectation for the protective behavior 0.16 (p<0.01), and self-efficacy in the specialty of projects 0.154 (p<0.01). The acceptance of the model determined by the absolute fit index (GFI), 0.969, and by the incremental fit index (CFI), 0.943, showed very significant levels. Value of $x^2$/df that is a factor applied to verify the acceptance of the model was 37, which implies that the result can be accepted in the desirable range. In addition, the parsimonious fit index configured by AGFI (0.890) and TLI (0.852) was also considered as a scale that accepts the model in practical applications. In case of the establishment of some specific intervention strategies based on the protective behavior model against harmful radiation effects proposed in this study, the strategy will provide an effective way to prevent medical harmful radiation effects that could cause severe injuries to people.

전신 PET/CT 검사에서 $^{18}F-FDG$의 방사성의약품을 투여한 환자가 방사선원이 되기에 환자로부터 종사자의 피폭선량 예측을 위한 PET 검사실에서 환자 주변의 공간선량률을 측정 분석하였다. 연간 개인피폭선량은 대학병원의 핵의학 분야에 근무하는 종사자가 방사선종양학과와 소규모병원의 진단방사선 분야에 비해 검사 중에 환자로부터 방출되는 공간선량률에 의하여 개인피폭선량이 높게 나타났다. 그리고 PET/CT 검사에서 $^{18}F-FDG$를 이용하는 경우에 $^{99m}Tc$ 보다 공간선량률이 $4{\sim}6$배 정도로 훨씬 높고, 촬영실 전체에 공간선량률이 분포함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 방사성의약품 투여 후 안정실이나 PET 검사 중에 촬영실 내에서는 항상 방사선 방어의 기본인 시간은 짧게, 거리는 멀리, 차폐를 고려하여 PET 검사를 수행하는 것이 매우 중요하고, 환자로부터의 공간선량률에 따른 종사자의 개인피폭선량을 줄이기 위한 최선의 노력이 필요하다.

Job satisfaction is very important for adequate manpower management in the medical field. To study job satisfaction among the radiologic technologists, 344 cases were reviewed in five university hospitals and one general hospital. Self-administered questionnaire was used to study their socioeconomic characteristics, working conditions, job satisfaction, and the factors affecting there Job satisfaction. The results were as follows : 1. There was statistically significant difference in job satisfaction according to the their department of employment, position, and hospital characteristics. 2. The group that was satisfied with their salary had a higher job satisfaction score, whereas others who were not satisfied ranked lower. 3. The positive answering group on the ability and job recognition ranked higher score on the job satisfaction than the negative answering group. 4. The group that was in good relationship with their superiors and co-workers scored higher on job satisfaction From the above results, the job satisfaction was high for the group with positive thinking and reply, but the intentin to change their job was low. Considering the fact that these results represent only 6 hospitals from limited arease, therefore, necessary to include more medical facilities nationwide, especially small-medium sized clinics or hospitals where the difficulty with high turnover rate of employment is expected, to study further various factors involving job satisfaction in the future.
