[Human Resource Development for Thyroid Ultrasound Examination Program in Fukushima].

As a response to the health effects associated with the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident that occurred after the Great East Japan Earthquake, the Thyroid Ultrasound Examination program as a part of the Fukushima Health Management Survey was started on Oct. 9th, 2011. Since this project required a large-scale cohort comprising all residents aged ≤ 18 years living in Fukushima when the earthquake happened, the nurturing of many ultrasound examiners was a matter of great urgency. Moreover, the standardization of examination procedures and skills of examiners were also important issues. Therefore, educational projects were established to develop ultrasound skills for medical doctors and technicians in Fukushima Prefecture. Marked efforts for this project resulted in increases in ultrasound examiners and institutions taking part in the Thyroid Ultrasound Examination project. Medical technicians specialized in ultrasound examinations are actively involved in these educational projects. We report the details of human resource development projects from the point of view of such medical technicians.
