Woman trainees and radiologists from across Canada are now better equipped to take on the challenges of leading in the field of radiology, thanks to an innovative workshop hosted by the University of Dalhousie.

The Dalhousie Physician Leadership Workshop for Women in Radiology took place virtually on Saturday, February 1, hosted by the university’s Department of Diagnostic Radiology and the Canadian Radiology Women, with financial support from the Canadian Radiological Foundation.

Dr. Daria Manos, CAR member and Past-President of the Canadian Society of Thoracic Radiology (CSTR), served as the event’s Steering Committee Chair. She says attendance nearly surpassed the triple digit mark.

“During the five-hour event, we had several didactic lectures from prominent woman radiologists and a few breakout sessions that focused on specific topics. In fact, it was the first year we had a breakout session specifically for radiologists in Quebec and one for women in interventional radiology. Both were very well attended,” she pointed out.
