Nominees Sought for RSNA Board of Directors
RSNA’s Nominating Committee is seeking nominations for qualified candidates to serve in two open Board of Director positions with terms beginning in December 2025.
RSNA’s Board of Directors is a highly skilled group of individuals committed to improving the future of radiology and advancing the Society’s mission.
To help ensure inclusion of diverse perspectives and needed expertise, the Board seeks leaders with experience in relationship building, working in collaborative partnerships or in settings such as private practice, safety-net or community-based care.
Nominations are open from Feb. 4 to March 20, 5 p.m. CT. The Nominating Committee will review the nominations and recommend a slate of candidates to the Board. Eligible members will vote on the final slate of candidates during the annual business meeting later this year.
Nominate yourself or encourage another qualified candidate to submit a nomination. Learn more about the open Board positions and candidate eligibility requirements.
Outstanding Community Impact Award Nominations Open
RSNA is seeking nominations for the Outstanding Community Impact Award that recognizes and celebrates an individual in the field of radiology who has made exceptional contributions to patient care and health care delivery through service to the community.
To be considered for this prestigious award, individuals should submit the self-nomination form highlighting their measurable and sustainable impact to their communities through an initiative or partnership they created or through a history of efforts in enhancing patient care and health care delivery. Individuals may also nominate someone else for the award by submitting a nomination form. If a candidate receives multiple nominations, only the first nomination submitted will be considered.
The nomination window will be open from March 4 through April 10, 5 p.m. CT. Learn about award criteria and eligibility details at now.
Brain Aneurysm AI Challenge Planned
Plans are underway for the summer launch of a new RSNA AI Challenge focused on saccular aneurysms in the brain.
Organized by a task force comprised of RSNA member neuroradiologists and AI experts, the upcoming challenge will task researchers to develop best-in-class machine learning models to detect and classify brain aneurysms.
A specially curated data set is planned and will contain data from almost every continent. Learn about RSNA AI Challenges and watch for launch details.
QIBA Profile Library Open to All
Medical imaging professionals can ensure greater precision and reliability in their work with profiles available in a library developed by members of the Quantitative Imaging Biomarkers Alliance (QIBA).
The profile library is a repository for quantitative imaging protocols for CT, MR, US and nuclear medicine, written and vetted by members of the radiology community. The profiles can be used in a variety of ways including:
- Improving clinical trials
- Providing aid in meeting regulatory requirements
- Facilitating research collaboration
- Delivering quality assurance
- Educating quantitative imaging newcomers
The work of the QIBA community demonstrated the value and practicality of quantitative imaging biomarkers, both nationally and internationally. Access the profile library at QIBAwiki.RSNA.org and select QIBA Profiles from the bulleted list. Have questions? Email us at [email protected].
Medical Imaging Resource for AI
The RSNA Medical Imaging Resource for AI (MIRA) data repository provides annotated medical imaging data sets to support AI-focused research. MIRA’s datasets were assembled for RSNA’s ongoing series of AI challenge competitions and are made available at no cost for non-commercial research. Data sets published on MIRA include:
- RSNA Intracranial Hemorrhage Detection (RSNA-IHD)
- RSNA Pulmonary Embolism Detection (RSNA-PED)
- RSNA Screening Mammography Breast Cancer Detection (RSNA-SMBC)
- RSNA Cervical Spine Fracture Detection (RSNA-CSF)
- RSNA Abdominal Traumatic Injury CT (RATIC)
Imaging Research Tools Available
RSNA offers imaging research and education tools designed to help you work more efficiently while improving the quality and safety of patient care.
Process DICOM files to remove or change personal identifiers for research with the RSNA DICOM Anonymizer tool. Exchange, index and retrieve images and documents from imaging clinical trials with our clinical trial processor. The tools are available for access and download at RSNA.org/MIRC.
