MRTs Speak Up: The Professional Identity Crisis Brought on by COVID-19.

The purpose of this study is to share the lived experience of Canadian medical radiation technologists (MRTs) in relation to their mental health during the pandemic by exploring the causes and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the professional group within the workplace. Data from eight semi-structured interviews and one focus group were conducted between April and June 2021. Audio files were transcribed and uploaded to a qualitative data analysis computer software program (NVivo) where codebook thematic analysis was conducted.
