The UW SMPH Department of Radiology had an outstanding showing at this year’s Radiological Society of North America meeting. Over 30 of the Department’s faculty, staff, fellows, and residents participated in the international event, with 17 winning at least one award. In addition, our faculty and staff supplied 35 refresher courses, 15 scientific presentations, and 13 education exhibits.
Hosted in Chicago, RSNA is one of the world’s premier medical meetings, drawing professionals from more than 100 countries together to discuss the advancement of the profession and learn about cutting edge technical advancements in the field.
