Associations between 24/7 workforce coverage, organizational challenges, and well-being of emergency radiologists: a national survey.

Background: The last decade has seen a surge in the demand for imaging exams in emergency radiology (ER), necessitating an evolution in organizational systems for departments offering round-the-clock care, while safeguarding patient care quality and physician well-being to prevent burnout.

Purpose: To develop a nationwide overview of ER organizations in France and identify structures that promote job satisfaction.

Material And Methods: Two surveys were sent to 709 radiological centers across France from March to June 2022, inquiring about organizational aspects and quality of life (QOL), incorporating four validated QOL questionnaires.
