Legacy About Us

OUR HISTORY:

The New York State Radiological Society, Inc (NYSRS) is the New York State Chapter of the American College of Radiology. It was founded in 1953 as the \”Radiological Society of the State of New York\”. It was originally founded when \”a group of x-ray physicians felt the need of a state wide organization to strengthen their professional and ethical status\”. It has evolved into a statewide organization of over 1,200 members.

According to our By-Laws, the purposes of this Society shall be those of the American College of Radiology: (1) to advance the science of radiology, and to improve radiologic services to the patient; (2) to study the socioeconomic aspects of the practice of radiology; (3) to encourage improved and continuing education for radiologists and allied professional fields; and (4) to establish and maintain high medical and ethical standards in the practice of radiology and allied professional fields.
