Abstract

Overall, 55% of surveyed radiology practice leaders reported that burnout was a very significant problem, and 22% reported that burnout was a significant problem. Burnout did not vary by geographical region but did vary by practice size. Overall, 71% of respondents reported stress from workplace factors, and 36% reported stress from personal or social factors very significantly affected radiologist employee wellness; both sets of factors varied by geographical region, practice size, and practice type. Only 19% of practice leader respondents reported mechanisms to assess burnout, which varied by region and practice type.
