World radiography day is celebrated on 8 November each year. The date marks the anniversary of the discovery of x-radiation by Roentgen in 1895. Radiographers worldwide can use the day and the days around the date to promote radiography as a career, as a vital contribution to modern healthcare and as a chance to increase public awareness of diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy. On this page you will find news of world radiography day events by SoR members. All of the materials and advice about celebrating and promoting radiography is here.
