The CT Colonography Radiographer Education Development Group (CTC REDG) was set up in 2015 to review and develop guidelines for CTC practice.
Membership of this group includes experienced CTC radiographers who are involved in the delivery of short courses and credit-bearing postgraduate awards to support the development of CTC services. Delivering these successful programmes of study has highlighted the wide variation in current CTC practice across the UK, and this has provided the momentum to explore what constitutes best practice in all aspects of CTC service delivery.
