Academy for Radiology & Biomedical Imaging Research Enhancing Patient Care Through Advances in Biomedical Imaging

The Academy is an advocacy organization committed to advancing research in medical imaging to promote the health and well-being of patients. By engaging a community of developing and experienced imaging scientists, novel technology experts, patients and their advocates, we promote shared learning and communication on both current research and future initiatives. We also inform the public and policy makers about how imaging and image-guided therapies translate into disease prevention, earlier and more accurate diagnoses, and improved quality of health care. The Academy was founded in 1995 and is comprised of 28 of the major imaging societies and the 50 leading academic radiology research departments.

We’re only a couple of weeks away from the Medical Imaging Research Hill Day! Dr. Avinash Kambadakone Ramesh, representing SAR, shares a little about the value of advocacy: “Advocacy at Medical Imaging Hill Day matters. A unified voice helps sustain imaging research, drive innovation, and directly benefit patients. Through the Society of Abdominal Radiology (SAR), I’m proud to advocate for imaging research that supports value based, high quality patient care through innovation and multidisciplinary collaboration to improve health outcomes, including areas close to my heart like early pancreatic cancer detection.”

Dr. Kirti Magudia, representing the American Association for Women in Radiology (AAWR) at the Hill Day, illustrates the importance of investment in imaging research: “Radiology and imaging research have been transformative for medicine. In fact, radiology tests are so fundamental that almost everyone has had an X-ray, ultrasound, CT, or MRI. We must consistently invest in radiology and imaging research to enable critical discoveries needed to continue advancing and improving patient care.”
