In this episode of Frame by Frame: Rethink Imaging, host Chris St John welcomes Dr. Elizabeth Krupinski, a pioneering expert in the psychology of medical imaging and Vice Chair for Research in the Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences at Emory University. This is Part 1 of a two-part series exploring how psychology intersects with radiology.
Dr. Krupinski's research delves into the cognitive and perceptual mechanisms that influence how radiologists interpret medical images. Her work is particularly relevant to the podcast's focus on the psychology behind radiologist errors, as she explores the challenges of burnout and the application of psychological principles to enhance both accuracy and well-being in radiology practice.
Notably, Dr. Krupinski has conducted extensive research on the impact of fatigue on diagnostic performance, revealing significant drops in accuracy after prolonged work hours. Her innovative studies and insights into the intersection of psychology and radiology make her a vital voice in understanding and improving the field.
