Abstract

INTRODUCTION: PET/MRI and PET CT scanning carries an increased psychological burden for patients which may be improved by effective preparation prior to attendance for the procedure. We aimed to devise an online resource for patient benefit prior to PET/MRI and PET/CT scanning. METHODS: With the help of patient representatives' the style and content for two patient information films was reviewed at each stage of the process to explain the patient journey. Results: Two patient information films were produced for patients undergoing PET scanning, Positive feedback from healthcare providers and users was obtained. CONCLUSION: Involvement of patient representatives in the production of an information resource has had a positive impact on the finished product, with potential for increased benefit to patients as a result.
