From the
Editor’s Desk
This edition showcases our progress towards
our strategic priorities in many areas of
College activity. We feature some of the
members who are leading our organisation,
highlight our ongoing advocacy activities
and report on policies and guidelines
designed to support our members’ quality
practice.
We start 2016 with our new President,
Dr Greg Slater, on the cover and I
encourage you all to read his first address to
the membership. Two other leaders who take their place on
Faculty Councils this year talk about their passion for their profession
and the work they do. We also introduce some hard-working Branch
members who have taken on important educational roles in their
state or country.
When it comes to raising our profile, nothing beats a meeting with
politicians in Canberra and the International Day of Radiology at the
end of last year provided a great opportunity for this. World Cancer
Day early in February was another opportunity, this time to highlight
the Targeting Cancer campaign and the many achievements of this
great initiative. We also publish a snapshot of our consumer website,
InsideRadiology; who is using it and what they are looking at.
Members who have been involved in developing and updating some
of our guidelines provide overviews on the new publications plus
we bring you the highlights of a very successful planning day held to
progress our training assessments review.
Once again this edition is full of varied and interesting articles written
by members. We are very fortunate to have so many people willing to
contribute to our publication – thank you.
