This paper presents a conceptual framework in aligning the integration of Islamic values into the Medical
imaging practices through the aspect of Islamic Personality (IP). IP is a form of moral quality in the
psychological aspects of a human, which is governed by the belief in Allah as the One God and Prophet
Muhammad (Peace be upon him) as His servant and His messenger. This work is seen within the context of
harmonizing Islamic values to the currently accepted professional attributes in medical imaging. The
medical imaging practice is comprised of various domains; basic principles in healthcare and medical
imaging, patient care, use of technology, the technicalities or procedures, quality, safety, economic,
research and professionalism. In order to conceptualize the IP as applicable for Muslim Medical imaging
practitioners’ ten professional guidelines were examined. The extracted professional attributes were sorted
into common themes within the context of the above domains. From the examination of the guidelines, the
expected professional attributes of medical imaging practitioners are closely related to the concepts in
Islamic ethics (‘ilm al-akhlaq) and circle around character building. There are nineteen common
professional personality traits that were determined from the Medical imaging professional guidelines; 1)
respectful, 2) safe practice, 3) safe activity, 4) equality, 5) trustworthy, 6) honesty and integrity, 7)
truthful, 8) responsible and accountable, 9) compassionate, 10) wisdom, and 11) being up-to-date, 12)
competence, 13) teamwork, 14) self-reflection, 15) dignity, 16) ethical behaviors, 17) adhere to laws and
regulations, 18) effective communication, and 19) continuity of knowledge and skills development. Some of
these traits were interpreted within the Islamic perspectives as applicable for Muslim Medical imaging
practitioners. The outlined conceptual framework could be a model for improvement in the practice of
Muslim Medical imaging practitioners in terms of IP. In conclusion, the professional attributes as addressed
in the current professional guidelines are feasible to be aligned with the IP to form a set of Islamic
personalities that are applicable for Muslim Medical imaging practitioners. |
