National Radiographer and Radiation Therapists’ Week (NRRTW) celebrates medical radiation professionals from Monday 3 November to Sunday 9 November. The week culminates in World Radiography Day, Saturday 8 November, which marks the anniversary of the discovery of the X-ray by German physicist Wilhelm Roentgen in 1895.
The 2025 theme for ASMIRT’s NRRTW is Medical Radiation Practitioners - meet the person behind your care.
We have chosen this theme as it links closely to our national street poster campaign that will commence on 25 October for two weeks. The campaign vividly and simply demonstrates exactly what Radiation Therapists and Radiographers do, across more than 250 sites in capital cities and available regional centres.
During the course of NRRTW we will reach out to patients, the public and other health professionals, not just through posters, but a comprehensive social media campaign that will include video, vox pops and great stories. I ask that you get behind the campaign, like and repost our socials, and take your own snaps in front of the street poster campaign and share the images.
