The Value of AAWR Membership
The AAWR was founded in 1981 to address social and economic issues facing women in radiology. The profession of radiology is dramatically changing, with increasing representation by women. We invite radiologists, radiation oncologists, radiation physicists, and radiation biologists, and those allies who support them. We have membership categories for both those who have completed their training and members-in-training as well as international radiologists.
