Members of the University of Virginia’s Department of Radiology and Medical Imaging at the RSNA’s 2024 Annual Meeting.
At one of the largest yearly radiology conferences, the University of Virginia’s Department of Radiology and Medical Imaging shared their research – and took home some awards.
Over 20 UVA trainees and faculty contributed their expertise to the conference as authors, presenters, and panel moderators during the 2024 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting. The conference was held from December 1 to December 5 in Chicago, IL.
Several department members earned additional distinction for their exceptional work, with 3 educational exhibits by UVA authors or co-authors receiving the RSNA’s Certificate of Merit.

Dr. Berr and Dr. Stone were recipients of the 2024 Distinguished Investigator Award from the Academy for Radiology and Biomedical Imaging Research, for their outstanding imaging research contributions.
Then on December 3, the department hosted its annual Alumni and Friends Reception, organized by the Keats Alumni Society. The evening was a chance to relax, reconnect, and learn about new exciting initiatives within UVA Radiology.
