The Applied Radiology crew is expanding and sailing into new waters. As we endeavor to continue providing you with the highest quality content, it has become clear that we can use more hands on deck to develop a growing cargo of review articles, cases, departments, and columns.

Indeed, in an effort to better reflect modern radiological practice, we are renaming or eliminating some technology-based imaging categories and replacing them with body system-based categories. The CT/MRI category, for example, is being eliminated, while Gastrointestinal Imaging is now Body Imaging and Chest Imaging is now Cardiopulmonary Imaging.

We are also in the midst of building upon our Editorial Board with a panel of specialty-specific Associate Editors to help strengthen our peer review process and to enhance the breadth and depth of our offerings. I am delighted to announce the first of these consulting Associate Editors:

Rest assured, we’re just getting started. We are working to identify additional associate editors and editorial board members, and we will share them with you in the coming months. In the meantime, please take a moment to review our masthead for more information on our new appointees.

I am excited and honored to be working with our entire Editorial Board to continue providing you with the most up-to-date and valuable medical imaging relevant to your daily practice. As always, I look forward to your feedback.
