Description

Objectives:

We were interested in understanding patient perspectives regarding the importance of reviewing their imaging studies with a surgeon.

Specific Aims:

1. What value do patients place on viewing their imaging?

2. Do patients have a better understanding of their disease and planned operation after a surgeon led review of imaging studies?

3. Do patients find viewing images an accessible educational tool?
