The RSNA's Research and Education Foundation board of trustees has approved more than $5 million in radiology research and education funding.
Since it began 40 years ago, in 1984, the foundation has awarded more than $84 million in more than 1,900 grants, the RSNA said. This year, it will fund 10 researchers, seven research seed grants, 30 research fellows/residents, 29 research medical students, and five education projects across 46 North American institutions.
"We’re incredibly grateful for the support of our donors during the past four decades," Foundation Chair Satoshi Minoshima, MD, PhD, said in a statement released by the society. "As we celebrate this distinguished milestone, we look forward to the Foundation's next 40 years. We're committed to building upon this incredible legacy and continuing to make a positive impact."
