Dear ISRRT member society, Radiology education program director and student, and associate member,

As the ISRRT President I want to take this moment to say thank to each of you for contributing to the success of the ISRRT -WHO Framework Convention Tobacco Control Project (WHO-FCTC) campaign on May 31. 

As I reflect on the different post, I viewed from around the world the word that come to my mind is outstanding. We asked you our members to contribute to the movement to create a tobacco-free profession for the benefit of all. I couldn’t be more pleased and excited see educator’s, program directors and student participation.  Know that you are inspiring and motivating and truly contributing to the educate and mentoring our next generation of radiographers. You are leading by example demonstrating to radiography students that by becoming involved they will impact and change the profession. Your video’s and post in support of our campaign were both inspiring and impactful.

The amount of professional reached was amazing and know that you have made a difference in the success of the ISRRT and WHO campaign by your participation.
Finally, Individual associate members and ISRRT members and hospital from around the world that showed true leadership by making a stand and supporting our campaign. Your pictures said 1000 words and showed people we all believe our next generation of radiographers should be a profession that is non-smoking.
