Surveys form an often critical part of a research project, and research underpins the high-quality care Medical Radiation Practitioners (MRPs) deliver daily. ASMIRT is committed to supporting and strengthening the conduct of research amongst all MRPs.
Your input in research surveys is valuable to those not just at ASMIRT, but across the Medical Radiation Sciences.
The following surveys and research project invitations are open:
You are invited to take part in this study if you are a recent graduate (less than 5 years) and working in Australia. The study has ethics approval from the University of Sydney 2023/807.
The Participant Information Statement (PIS) can be found on the survey’s landing page. Your participation in this survey is highly appreciated, and your responses will remain anonymous. Please note that your consent is implied by submitting this survey.
This research project forms part of the requirements towards a PhD in Medical Radiation Science, supervised by Professor Zhonghua Sun, Associate Professor Sharon Maresse and Professor Julia Richardson. The project investigates how Australian radiation therapists create and maintain career sustainability, and will contribute towards gaining insight into retaining experienced radiation therapists in the workforce.
The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete and is anonymous. A participant information sheet is included at the start of the survey for further information.
The purpose of this research project is to define informed measures of patient-centered care. The research team is inviting anyone who is over 18 years of age and is a service user of diagnostic radiography (feel free to share with family members), clinical radiographer/manager/educator or student in Australia to participate.
The purpose of this study is to explore RT experiences in providing survivorship care for patients undergoing radiotherapy, as well as opinions on further education and training needs. Should you choose to participate, you will be asked to complete an online survey which will include questions relating to your views and involvement in survivorship care initiatives for patients undergoing radiotherapy treatment.
This research has been approved by Flinders University’s Human Research Ethics Committee (project number 6800).
Participation should take between 15-20 minutes.
Do you experience ‘Scanxiety’? We are seeking adults from remote, rural and regional Australia who experience anxiety as part of their cancer journey when undergoing surveillance imaging (such as x-ray, ultrasound, MRI, CT and nuclear medicine) to take part in a mixed method research study to better understand and evaluate scan related anxiety.
You are invited to take part in this study if you are a recent graduate (less than 5 years) and working in Australia. The study has ethical approval from the University of Sydney 2023/807.

The University of Melbourne and VCCC Alliance are investigating the current Australian Radiation Oncology Workforce experiences with genomic medicine. Your views, even if you are unfamiliar with the topic, are valuable. This 15 min survey will help shape future practices and education in this field. Ethics ref #:2024-29861-59258-5
ASMIRT is committed to supporting medical radiation practitioners (MRPs) in maintaining professionalism and meeting mandatory continuing professional development (CPD) requirements through a range of educational events and programs.
In 2018, we surveyed over 1,000 ASMIRT members, which gave us valuable insights into both our CPD offerings and MRPs’ opinions on CPD (read the full article here). We’re now conducting a follow-up survey to see if opinions and satisfaction with our CPD events have changed. These surveys are part of a research project approved by Curtin University Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC number HRE2018-0505).
Your feedback is essential in helping us enhance our offerings to better meet your needs. By completing the survey, you’ll also have the chance to enter a draw to win a registration to the ASMIRT/NZIMRT 2025 Conference in Adelaide, valued at up to $1,500 (not redeemable for cash). Survey closes 11:59pm (AWST) Friday 22 November 2024.

This study investigates how AI systems in medical radiation sciences impact professional accountability. The aim is to investigate whether AI technologies create gaps in responsibility, leading to situations where it is unclear who should be held accountable for both positive and negative outcomes.
Participate in this QUT study exploring how AI influences professional accountability in medical radiation sciences. Share your insights as a radiographer, radiation therapist, sonographer or nuclear medicine technologist.
Your input will help shape future training and policy to better support healthcare professionals. Survey takes just 10 minutes (UHREC approval number: 8810).
