Barriers and drivers for rad-led MRIgRT.

Barriers Drivers
Training opportunities difficult to arrange due to MDT availability Radiographers could learn on-the-job and professions would always be available for support
Difficult to arrange consistent training Radiographers want to take on their empowering role when the training programme is sufficient
Radiographers with little to no experience in planning and dosimetry and MR Physicists envision radiographers taking on their role
Timescale to train radiographers is short Professions have confidence in radiographers
Staffing and logistics of a radiographer-led pathway and on-call service Radiographers will need to be able to perform the workflow as the demand is already too high on other professionals.
De-skilling of physicists The chance of progression for all roles
