However, in making their decision, there is usually minimal objective data that can guide applicants in creating their rank list. Purpose: The goal of the study is to determine which factors in order of importance lead to the decision to rank one residency program over the other. Methods: This study was an anonymous, cross sectional study conducted through an online survey. Emails were sent out to applicants who had interviewed at the University of Texas Medical Branch Diagnostic Radiology department the day after match day. The survey consisted of a single open-ended question asking the survey taker to list four factors in order of importance that guided their program rank list. Results were compiled, tallied, and categorized to find common themes between the applicants preferences. Results: Of the 73 surveys sent out, a total of 30 applicants responded for a response rate of 41%. The most common 1st preference factors were Reputation, Location, and Work Environment, with 23.33%, 20%, and 20% of applicants considering these the most important factors in ranking a program. Conclusion: Despite reputation being the most common 1st preference factor, Work Environment was more commonly mentioned overall, being mentioned in 23.35% of all answers compared to Reputation 12.5%. These results, combined with the difficulty in changing a programs location and reputation, make it clear that programs should focus on building and highlighting a healthy work environment to attract applicants.","PeriodicalId":89331,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical imaging and intervention journal","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83122568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of the present study was to update a similar survey from 2008 and assess the situation of medical physicists in the large and diverse Asia Pacific region.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Between March and July 2011, a survey on profession and practice of radiation oncology medical physicists (ROMPs) in the Asia Pacific region was performed.

This increase is similar to the increase in the number of linear accelerators, showing that previously identified staff shortages have yet to be substantially addressed. This is also highlighted by the fact that most ROMPs are expected to work overtime often and without adequate compensation. While job satisfaction has stayed similar compared to the previous survey, expectations for education and training have increased somewhat. This is in line with a trend towards certification of ROMPs.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>As organisations such as the International Labour Organization (ILO) start to recognise medical physics as a profession, it is evident that despite some encouraging signs there is still a lot of work required towards establishing an adequately trained and resourced medical physics workforce in the Asia Pacific region.</p>","PeriodicalId":89331,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical imaging and intervention journal","volume":"8 2","pages":"e10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2349/biij.8.2.e10","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30899568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
