now I am based in Ireland teaching predominantly postgraduate pre-registration students. I<br />

am research active, my current interests are digital radiography, computed tomography, dose<br />

optimisation, mammography, and patient safety. My passion for improving radiography<br />

education and patient care is demonstrated in my work as Chair of the European Federation<br />

of Radiographer Societies (EFRS) Educational Wing Management Team and I am also an<br />

Executive EFRS Board member. I am Associate Editor for the Radiography Journal and I<br />

currently review for several other international imaging journals. I am an experienced<br />

external examiner, both nationally and internationally.<br />

I wanted to contribute towards this <strong>book</strong> as I am passionate about our fight against <strong>COVID</strong>-<br />

<strong>19</strong>. Having undertaken research on the safe imaging of <strong>COVID</strong>-<strong>19</strong> and also developing e-<br />

learning materials for the <strong>ISRRT</strong> I wanted to continue my work in this area.<br />

Hafsa Essop<br />

Masters in Diagnostic Radiography; Bachelor in<br />

diagnostic radiography with honours; and<br />

another Bachelor in diagnostic radiography.<br />

I am a lecturer at the University of Pretoria,<br />

South Africa and teach radiographic imaging<br />

science to second year undergraduate students<br />

and Computed Tomography to honours. I am<br />

also involved with clinical supervision,<br />

undergraduate and post graduate research<br />

supervision.<br />

I wanted to contribute my experience to this e-<strong>book</strong> because the <strong>COVID</strong> <strong>19</strong> pandemic was an<br />

event in history that no one was prepared for. It pushed educators to their limits but at the<br />

same time unlocked their unknown potential. This valuable insight may one day help and<br />

inspire future generations who may also find themselves in the midst of a pandemic, but this<br />

time with tools and shared knowledge from colleagues who navigated through uncharted<br />

waters to get to this point, of what we may now call as a victory against all odds.<br />
