2024 Leaders on the Horizon Residents’ Program Winners Announced

With support from Bracco Diagnostics Inc., Anderson Publishing, Ltd., publisher of Applied Radiology, is pleased to announce the winners of the 2024 Leaders on the Horizon Radiology Residents’ Program.  

Open to both international and US-based radiology residents, Leaders on the Horizon aims to support the continued education of radiology residents with an initiative designed to refine their scholarly research and writing skills, coupled with the opportunity to attend the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting and network with fellow residents, key opinion leaders, and industry representatives.  

For 2024, participating residents were invited to develop and submit a clinical research article and/or a clinical review article focusing on any imaging modality and/or topics related to medical imaging. All submissions were reviewed by a committee of radiology experts in their area of specialty, and the top three clinical research articles and top three clinical review articles will be published in a special supplement to Applied Radiology in early 2025. Winning residents will be honored during RSNA at a reception on Sunday, December 1, where each resident will receive a monetary scholarship award to support their continued education in medical imaging.
