Medical imaging procedures are integral to patient care, requiring nurses to have a foundational understanding to support clinical decision-making and patient education [1]. Knowledge of medical imaging not only enhances a nurse’s ability to advocate for patients but also helps to alleviate patient anxiety by providing clear and accurate explanations of what to expect during medical imaging exams [2]. This study investigates the knowledge and perception of nurses working in therapeutic and surgical profile departments regarding medical imaging procedures.
