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 responses to research survey are valuable to those not just at ASMIRT, but across the medical radiation sciences.
The following surveys and research project invitations are open:
Take part in the Research Capacity and Culture (RCC) Survey and share your insights on research in radiography. The RCC Survey is a validated tool designed to explore radiographers' experiences, attitudes, and opportunities in research.
Your feedback will provide valuable insights into the barriers and facilitators of research engagement in radiography. This has Monash ethics #45825
The research group at Monash University is seeking to capture a snapshot of adaptive radiation therapy practice in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore. The survey is designed for radiation therapists, radiation oncology medical physicists and radiation oncologists and should take approximately 20 mins to complete. Participation is entirely voluntary, and all responses will be anonymised. Ethics study 46404
Invitation to participate in a research project: Evaluation of Medical Radiation Undergraduates’ Clinical Experiences with Challenging Interactions.The study seeks to explore the effects of these interactions on students’ professional capability development and how these could be managed for a successful clinical placement. Medical radiation clinical practitioners across the three specialisations (MI, RT, and NM) are invited to participate in a 20-30-minute online semi-structured interview at your convenience. Kindly contact Jacob Ago via email: s4065685@student.rmit.edu.au for further information about the study.
Take part in this survey exploring Australian Radiation Therapists' perspectives on mHealth applications in Radiation Oncology. Your insights will help shape future patient-oriented mHealth applications, enhancing patient care and improving workflows. The survey is anonymous, takes approximately 5-10 minutes to complete and closes on 4 May 2025.
The survey aims to gather desired discussion topics, and your support in answering this short survey (4 questions) would be greatly appreciated. The survey will remain open until 30/03/2025.
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 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.
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
The Australia Society of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy (ASMIRT) encourages and supports relevant research to improve patient outcomes.
