It is unknown what GPs and radiologists expect from ankle radiography for chronic complaints.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1463423626101418_as3\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A qualitative study was conducted with GPs and radiologists. Semi-structured focus group discussions were held online or live until data saturation was reached. The topic guide included: reasons for radiography, content of requests and reports, and the impact of results on patient management. The recorded interviews were transcribed and subsequently coded inductively in Max-QDA.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1463423626101418_as4\">\n                    <jats:title>Findings:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Five focus groups with 24 GPs and 3 focus groups with 11 radiologists were held. Radiologists focussed more on urgent diagnoses that were less considered by GPs for their rareness. GPs indicated to request ankle radiography more often for patient-, physician-related and organizational reasons than for medical indications. Radiologists expect requests to include a specific question accompanied by applicable clinical information including a specific pain location. GPs in their turn expect a short conclusion of the report answering their question.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1463423626101418_as5\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>GPs and radiologists have different expectations of radiography for chronic ankle complaints. Important in GPs\u2019 rationale behind requesting ankle radiography for chronic complaints are non-medical factors and prevalence of ankle disorders, while radiologists also focus on more rare diagnoses than GPs. More research on the added value and accuracy of ankle radiography for chronic complaints in primary care settings is necessary.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1463423626101418","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,28]],"date-time":"2026-09-28T11:07:46Z","timestamp":1790593666000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["General practitioners\u2019 and radiologists\u2019 expectations of ankle radiography for chronic complaints \u2013 a focus group study"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2488-8230","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sabine","family":"Kloprogge","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Erasmus MC University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mirna","family":"Chamoro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Erasmus MC University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1293-6346","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dieuwke","family":"Schiphof","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Erasmus MC University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nienke","family":"Katier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Albert Schweitzer Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5941-4820","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Patrick","family":"Bindels","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Erasmus MC University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sita","family":"Bierma-Zeinstra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Erasmus MC University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marienke","family":"van Middelkoop","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Erasmus MC University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1472-6963-9-143"},{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2474-11-144"},{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref19","first-page":"111","article-title":"Quality of general practitioner referrals to outpatient departments: Assessment by specialists and a general practitioner","volume":"43","author":"Jenkins","year":"1993","journal-title":"British Journal of General Practice"},{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref30","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/adc.86.5.374"},{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/036354659302100103"},{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4135\/9781483384436"},{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref38","first-page":"e12903","article-title":"Correspondence between primary and secondary care about patients with cancer: A qualitative mixed-methods analysis","volume":"28","author":"Stegmann","year":"2019","journal-title":"European Journal of Cancer Care (Engl)"},{"key":"S1463423626101418_ref40","unstructured":"Vanhommerig, J and Overbeek, L (2022) Nivel-cijfers ziekten op jaarbasis - hoe gezond is Nederland?
