Radiology Associations

Professional radiology organizations connect imaging professionals across the world, and advocate for radiology policies, regulations, educational updates and technology advancements. These societies include ACR, ASRT, SIIM, RSNA, SNMMI, and many other imaging groups. Find specific news pages for each society at these links: American College of Radiology (ACR), Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS), American Society Radiologic Technologists (ASRT), Association for Medical Imaging Management (AHRA), Radiology Business Management Association (RBMA), Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM), Society of Breast Imaging (SBI), and the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR).

The Nanox ARC cold-cathode, tomosythesis 3D X-ray system is currently pending FDA clearance. If cleared, it would be the first device of its kind to offer cold-cathode X-ray tube technology and the ability to slice through the anatomy in images similar to CT scans aid diagnosis. The new type of tube also could greatly reduce the size and weight of X-ray systems. The vendor sees this system as key to its larger plan to address health disparities and access to imaging world-wide. #Nanox

Can cold-cathode X-ray combined with teleradiology and AI eliminate health disparities?

The Israeli vendor Nanox says it has a vision for the future of healthcare. It seeks to address health disparities and access challenges with a new business model and innovative package of technologies. Hurdles loom, but opportunities abound.

RSNA primes 2022 conference attendees for virtual participation, technical exhibits

With its 108th scientific assembly and annual meeting a little more than two weeks away, the Radiological Society of North America is encouraging attendees to experience 2022’s big show virtually—even if they’ll be there in person.

MRI system advances include helium-free MRI systems (left is Philips version of this system), and compressed sensing (right, GE's version of this technology), which can greatly reduce scan times. Both technologies were mentioned in an overview by Signet Research of new tech that will be at RSNA 2022.
