World Radiography Day takes place on the 8th of November celebrating 130 years since the discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Röntgen.
This weekend, we proudly join healthcare organisations across the world in recognising the essential contributions of radiographers to patient care.
At the National Centre for Stereotactic Radiosurgery, our Therapeutic Radiographers are at the heart of delivering precise, non-invasive treatment using the Elekta Esprit Gamma Knife. Their expertise ensures that patients with complex neurological conditions—such as brain metastases, AVMs, and trigeminal neuralgia—receive safe, accurate, and compassionate care.
But radiosurgery is never a solo effort. We also want to acknowledge the Diagnostic Radiographers who are a vital part of our wider multidisciplinary team. Their skill in acquiring high-quality imaging is fundamental to our planning, treatment targeting, and ongoing patient monitoring.
Together, our radiographers:
* Drive precision in treatment
* Ensure patient safety and comfort
* Support collaborative decision-making
* Contribute to the delivery of world-class, patient-centred care
💙 To our dedicated imaging professionals—both in therapeutic and diagnostic radiography—thank you for the role you play in advancing radiosurgery and improving lives.
