This episode reviews the interpersonal communication section of the ARRT Patient Care content specifications. We discuss modes of communication — verbal, written, and nonverbal — and how to adapt to challenges like language barriers, cultural differences, impairments, age, and emotional state. We also cover strategies to improve patient understanding, effective patient education before and after procedures, and how to respond to questions about imaging. Finally, we emphasize clear, professional communication as a cornerstone of patient-centered care.
