Abstract
- • Italy has been slowly reopening after a 10 week lockdown following COVID-19 outbreak. • A survey was administered to Italian RT departments to depict the current scenario. • In P1, RT departments managed to contain contagion with modest workload reduction. • All safety measures, maintained in P2, allowed RT departments to restore activities. • Reorganization of activities will be crucial to prevent the second wave of pandemic.
