Celebrating the Image at RSNA 2011 (ONLINE BONUS MATERIAL: TECHNOLOGY TRENDS‪)‬

"Celebrate the Image"--the theme of RSNA 2011--appropriately emphasized the growing impact medical imaging is having in the clinical environment, across multiple disciplines, and in medical science throughout the world. "Medical imaging has helped change the face of clinical care," noted 2011 RSNA President Burton P. Drayer, MD, in his RSNA presidential address. Yet he stressed that it is a critical time for radiologists to "remain clinically and academically essential," encouraging radiologists to "form a united front in advancing the needs of clinical radiology and the imaging sciences."
