Abstract

Radiologists and members-in-training are experiencing higher (and escalating) rates of burnout, resulting in a profound impact on the health of physicians, patients, and the community. Lately, the radiology community has demonstrated a growing awareness of this phenomenon, which has led to emphasis on practicing and promoting wellness. With a myriad of factors contributing to burnout in radiology, a multifaceted approach is pivotal for counteracting burnout and fostering overall well-being, including efforts driven at both organizational and individual levels. This article discusses perspectives from the members of the Early Career Committee at the Society for Advanced Body Imaging (SABI); it explores their beliefs and practical strategies for maintaining personal well-being.
