On May 7, 2014, the 1st Annual Department of Radiology Quality & Safety Forum took place, sponsored by Dr. Bernard Boulanger and the UK HealthCare Office of Enterprise Quality & Safety. Eight Radiology Quality & Safety projects were displayed to the public, and a winner chosen by secret panel. The event hosted many observers, including Dr. Michael Karpf. Dr. Sarah Deraney’s (R2) poster was chosen as the winning project. Dr. Deraney went on to present her poster again on June 11, 2014, at the Quarterly Report on Quality.

First Year Radiology Residents received their first lead aprons recently. A service provided by the Department, the Residents receive personalized lead aprons and safety glasses. Custom fitted for each individual, lead aprons and safety glasses are valuable and necessary equipment for Radiologists.

The Department of Radiology works to provide cutting-edge diagnostic imaging techniques and advanced interventional radiological therapies, a result of out strong clinical, educational and research programs.
