Teleradyoloji, tele-tıbbın bir parçası olarak, görüntülerin alındığı yer ile bu görüntüleri değerlendiren radyoloğun farklı bir konumda olması durumunda bile tanısal incelemelerin yapılabilmesini ifade etmektedir. Teleradyoloji, radyoloji uygulamalarının ayrılmaz bir parçası haline gelmiş ve uzaktan görüntüleme ile değerlendirme işlemlerinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu çalışma, teleradyoloji alanındaki makalelerin bibliyometrik göstergeler ve içerik olarak analiz edilmesini amaçlamaktadır. Teleradyoloji ile ilgili Web of Science veri tabanında yer alan 960 makale “anahtar kelimeler, yayın türü ve yayın dili” kriterleri kullanılarak araştırmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Araştırma, 1991-2024 yılları arasında 503 dergide, 92 ülkeden 4.734 yazar tarafından İngilizce olarak yayınlanan 960 makaleyi kapsamaktadır. Teleradyoloji alanındaki yayınlar yıllar itibariyle artmakta, en çok makale yayınlayan ülke “ABD”, üniversite “University of Maryland”, dergi “Journal of Digital Imaging”, yazarlar “B. A. M. Bandowe, M. A. Brondani ve K. Dreij”, en çok atıf alan yazar ise “B. A. M. Bandowe” olmuştur. Yayınlanan makalelerde en çok “PACS” olmak üzere 2.851 farklı anahtar kelime kullanılmıştır. Araştırma kapsamına alınan ve en çok atıf alan 33 (≥50) makalede, “teleradyolojinin faydaları”, “teleradyolojinin maliyeti”, “teleradyolojiye ilişkin sorunlar” ve “teleradyolojinin benimsenmesi, kullanımı ve geliştirilmesine yönelik öneriler” olmak üzere dört ana temaya odaklanılmıştır. Araştırmada bibliyometrik ve içerik analiz yapılarak teleradyoloji ile ilgili makalelerin profili, tematik yönelimleri, araştırma öncelikleri incelenmiş ve konu ile ilgili genel bir çerçeve oluşturulmaya çalışılmıştır.

EXAMINATION OF SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS IN THE FIELD OF TELERADIOLOGY WITH BIBLIOMETRIC AND CONTENT ANALYSIS

Öz

Teleradiology, as part of telemedicine, refers to the ability to perform diagnostic examinations even when the location of the images and the radiologist evaluating these images is in different places. Teleradiology has become an integral part of radiology practices and plays an important role in remote imaging and assessment processes. This study aims to analyze articles in the field of teleradiology in terms of bibliometric indicators and content. 960 articles on teleradiology in the Web of Science database were included in the study using the criteria of “keywords, publication type, and publication language”. The study covers 960 articles published in English by 4,734 authors from 92 countries in 503 journals between 1991-2024. Publications in the field of teleradiology have been increasing over the years, the country that published the most articles was “USA”, the university was “University of Maryland”, the journal was “Journal of Digital Imaging”, the authors were “B. A. M. Bandowe, M. A. Brondani, and K. Dreij”, and the most cited author was “B. A. M. Bandowe”. In the published articles, 2,851 different keywords were used, the most frequently being “PACS”. The 33 (≥50) most cited articles included in the scope of the research focused on four main themes: “benefits of teleradiology”, “cost of teleradiology”, “problems related to teleradiology”, and“suggestions for the adoption, use, and development of teleradiology”. In the research, a general framework was created for the profile, thematic orientations, and research priorities of articles related to teleradiology by conducting bibliometric and content analysis.
