Organizational Structure And Decision-making Process

Decision-Making Processes and External Stakeholder Involvement (Medical Imaging Techniques Program)

In the Medical Imaging Techniques Program, the planning, updating, and quality assurance processes of educational activities are carried out based on a participatory management approach and a continuous improvement perspective. Program management and relevant academic units take an active role in decision-making processes, and input from external stakeholders is also utilized to ensure the program remains up-to-date and aligned with the healthcare sector.

In this context, external stakeholders contributing to the program include radiology and medical imaging units of public and private hospitals, healthcare professionals working in radiology, nuclear medicine, and radiotherapy (radiology technicians, radiologists, nuclear medicine specialists), graduates, and field experts.

External Stakeholder Involvement, Documentation, and Impact on the Program:
Feedback and evaluations obtained from external stakeholders are systematically addressed through meetings, field visits, and feedback mechanisms aimed at improving educational processes. These inputs are analyzed in line with program needs, and when necessary, improvements are made in course content, practical training processes, and overall program structure.

In particular, the following aspects are taken into consideration:

• Current practices and technological advancements in radiology and medical imaging
• Radiation safety and patient safety practices
• Professional skills and competencies required in healthcare services
• Situations encountered by students during internships and clinical practices
• Graduates’ professional experiences and feedback

Based on the feedback received, the program content is regularly reviewed. Improvements are made by increasing the emphasis on practical training in areas such as imaging techniques, equipment operation, patient preparation, radiation safety, and quality control processes to strengthen students’ professional competencies.

Through this approach, the program aims to educate healthcare technicians who can adapt to the evolving needs of the healthcare sector, possess strong practical skills, uphold ethical responsibility, and are committed to lifelong professional development.
