Graphical Abstract

Evidence-based practice (EBP) has a vital role to play in improving outcomes for patients, organisations and individual practitioners. Unfortunately, within diagnostic radiography, literature consistently demonstrates that positive EBP is not the norm. This editorial discusses a strategy for fostering cultural change within the profession to improve EBP.
