Imaging Informatics Scientists

An Imaging Informatics Scientist plays a crucial role in the field of medical imaging. They specialize in the development, optimization, and quality assurance of imaging technologies such as X-rays, MRI, CT scans, and ultrasound. Their responsibilities include designing imaging protocols, ensuring equipment safety and compliance with regulatory standards, and collaborating with healthcare professionals to obtain high-quality diagnostic images. They also contribute to research and innovation by developing advanced imaging techniques and participating in clinical trials. Imaging scientists bridge the gap between physics and healthcare, ensuring the safe and effective use of imaging technology for accurate diagnosis and treatment of various medical conditions.

SIIM is where scientists from across the enterprise come to find like minded professionals who thrive on improving health and solving challenges together with informatics. #YouBelongAtSIIM!
