The winter 2023 edition of the RCR Newsletter focuses on communication. This is a fundamental part of medical practice and is of particular importance in our specialties. The means by which we communicate are broad and include written, verbal, and visual, but the process is dynamic and two-way. This requires both parties to interact but also to listen/watch/ read and fundamentally to understand.
It is my pleasure to bring you the latest insights, developments and trends that continue to shape the field of radiology. In this issue, we are shining a spotlight on critical topics that have been driving innovation and transformation within our community: new ways of training, a new exam format and machine learning.
I recently had the pleasure of speaking about leadership at the RCR new consultants’ day. What exactly is leadership? It certainly isn’t command (that’s the authority you get from your title/position), and it isn’t management (that’s marshalling the use of resources). Real leadership is about persuading a group of individuals to work collectively towards a common goal.
Welcome to the spring 2023 edition of the RCR Newsletter. It gives me great pleasure to open this edition with the theme of International Medical Graduates’ (IMGs). With my IMG background, this subject is close to my heart and an integral part of my personal journey here in the UK.
Welcome to the winter 2022 edition of the RCR Newsletter. In the UK you will probably be reading this hunkered down at home, with colder weather and shorter days meaning Netflix and the sofa are inviting propositions.
Innovation means very different things to different people. To some, it is about revolution: throwing out old ways of doing things and taking advantage of huge technological advances. To others it is about incremental steps, carefully tested, in order to continually improve. And perhaps both of these are relevant to our specialties right now.
With over 16,000 Fellows and members worldwide, The Royal College of Radiologists exists to lead, educate and support doctors who are training and working in the specialties of clinical oncology and clinical radiology. With such a broad perspective on our two specialties, we develop and deliver a unique body of work which could not be undertaken by any other organisation.
