Abstrakt: • Acknowledging complexity through advanced knowledge synthesis, competence of the context, and broad and strong stakeholder involvement is crucial is crucial to manage task complexity. • Clear consensus-based criteria for selecting low-value imaging procedures are key. • Having a clear target group is important. • Stakeholder engagement is crucial to ascertain intervention relevance and compliance. • Active and well-motivated intervention collaborators is a necessary but not sufficient condition. • It is crucial to pay close attention to the mechanisms of low-value imaging and the barriers to reduce it. Substantial overuse of health care services is identified and intensified efforts are incited to reduce low-value services in general and in imaging in particular. To report crucial success factors for developing and implementing interventions to reduce specific low-value imaging examinations based on a case study in Norway. Mixed methods design including one systematic review, one scoping review, implementation science, qualitative interviews, content analysis of stakeholders' input, and stakeholder deliberations. The description and analysis of an intervention to reduce low-value imaging in Norway identifies six general success factors: 1) Acknowledging complexity: advanced knowledge synthesis, competence of the context, and broad and strong stakeholder involvement is crucial to manage de-implementation complexity. 2) Clear consensus-based criteria for selecting low-value imaging procedures are key. 3) Having a clear target group is critical. 4) Stakeholder engagement is essential to ascertain intervention relevance and compliance. 5) Active and well-motivated intervention collaborators is imperative. 6) Paying close attention to the mechanisms of low-value imaging and the barriers to reduce it is decisive. Reducing low-value imaging is crucial to increase the quality, safety, efficiency, and sustainability of the health services. Reducing low-value imaging is a complex task and paying attention to specific practical success factors is key. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
