THE PATHWAY TO FELLOWSHIP

Early career professionals can embark on the journey to attaining the prestigious FACR.

Fellowship is one of the highest honors an ACR member can achieve and recognizes a history of service to organized radiology and medicine, teaching, and/or research. Fellows are represented by diagnostic radiologists, radiation oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians, interventional radiologists, and medical physicists.

The ACR Committee on Fellowship Credentials (CFC) measures each interview with the Bulletin, Kathleen A. Ward, MD, FACT, fellowship chairperson of the Illinois Radiological Society and a member of the CFC,  discusses how the ACR is ensuring that Fellowship is available to all members who have demonstrated outstanding service – and urges early career professionals to start preparing now for the honor to build their careers toward earning this highest level of ACR membership.

The highly anticipated NYSRS RFS Summer Social was a huge success with nearly 70 residents attending from 10 different programs across the state!

The Penny Farthing in the East Village was a great venue for us, so we may have found a new home! Make sure you don’t miss out next year!
