Jobs and Skills Australia's 2026 Occupation Shortage List confirms what imaging departments already know: Radiographers and Sonographers remain in national shortage, and Radiation Therapists have now joined them.

This week also brought Australasian Sonographers Day, the wrap of RANZCR's Christchurch meeting, and two pieces of UK news that matter to anyone considering work there. Here is what each means for Radiographers, Sonographers and the departments that employ them, with every source linked at the end.

Here is what has happened, what Speech Pathology Australia (SPA) and other professions are asking for, and what it means for Speech Pathologists and practice owners. Every source is linked at the end.
