Most patient education material fails for one simple reason:
It's written by someone who's never sat across from a scared patient.
I spent 3 years explaining PET, CT, and MRI procedures to patients at Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, one of Asia's largest cancer centers.
So when I built a sample patient brochure, I didn't start with "what sounds professional."
I started with the actual questions patients ask in the room:
Will it hurt?
Will I feel closed in?
Is the radiation safe?
Attached is a sample PET/CT scan brochure I built (fictional clinic, real clinical accuracy).

It walks through prep, the scan itself, and recovery in plain language, plus a checklist patients can actually use.
If you work in health tech, diagnostic imaging, or patient communications and need someone who's done this face-to-face, not just researched it,
I'd love to talk.
