RadNet Joins Exchange of Ideas at 2014 RSNA Annual Meeting

In 2014, the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) celebrates its 100th consecutive year hosting one of the world’s premier forums on radiology. The annual meeting of the RSNA is a meeting place for radiologists, medical physicists and other medical professionals from around the globe to gather and exchange ideas. To help promote education and partnership in radiology, RadNet planned a significant presence at the 2014 RSNA Annual Meeting.

Promoting the science and practice of radiology for 100 years

While the annual meeting of the RSNA includes opportunities for networking and informal introductions among like-minded professionals, the focus is centered on education and the promotion of research.

Highlights of the 2014 RSNA Annual Meeting include:

  • Lectures on and discussions of hot topics in radiology, such as lung cancer screening and sports-related concussions.
