  Background:The increasing complexity and variability in radiology have significantly fueled the need forguidelines. There are many methods for disseminating and implementing guidelines however; and obtaininglasting changes has been difficult. Implementation outcome is usually measured in a decrease in unwarrantedexaminations, and qualitative data are rarely used. This study’s aim was to evaluate a guideline implementationprocess and identify factors influencing implementation outcome using qualitative data.Methods:Seven general practitioners and five radiological personnel from a Norwegian county participated in fourfocus group interviews in 2019. The data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis, where some categorieswere predetermined, while most were drawn from the data.Results:Four main categories were developed from the data material. 1) Successful/unsuccessful parts of theimplementation, 2) perceived changes/lack of changes after the implementation, 3) environment-related factorsthat affected guideline use, and 4) User related factors that affect guideline use.Conclusions:Our findings show that clinical guideline implementation is difficult, despite the implementationstrategy being tailored to the target groups. Several environment- and user-related factors contributed to the lackof changes experienced in practice for both general practitioners and radiological personnel.
