The goal of this feasibility study is to learn if individuals without formal radiology training can safely acquire adequate x-ray images following a structured training and real-time remote guidance from a licensed radiologic technologist (RT). The main question it aims to answer is:
Inclusion Criteria:
Exclusion Criteria:
Prior or current professional training, certification, or education in radiography (formal or informal)
Prior experience performing x-rays
a) including any prior hands-on testing experience with the ENDURO DR ES90 portable x-ray (prior observation or exposure to ENDURO DR is permitted)
Pregnancy or possible pregnancy (self-report)
Any condition or circumstance that would make participation unsafe
Participants will complete a structured training, covering imaging technique, radiation safety procedures, and operation of the portable x-ray system. Following training, participants will perform a series of x-ray image acquisitions under real-time remote supervision by a licensed RT and complete a qualitative interview and workload assessment.
