The world’s largest radiologic science association announced today the launch of a new web page that chronicles its 100-year history. In addition to the site, the American Society of Radiologic Technologists, founded in 1920, will commemorate its centennial anniversary with a yearlong series of programs, initiatives and celebrations that pay tribute to the organization’s seminal role in shaping the radiologic sciences and promoting the advancement of radiologic technologists.

“The positive impact our organization has made over the past century is undeniable,” said ASRT President Stephanie Johnston, M.S.R.S, R.T.(R)(M)(BD)(BS), FASRT. “ASRT still leads the way in championing patient safety, spearheading high-quality education and improving the professional status of all medical imaging and radiation therapy personnel. I’m so proud to celebrate ASRT’s enduring legacy.”

In addition, the website highlights the ASRT Museum and Archives, counts down to the June 2020 celebration to be held at the organization’s office in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and rounds up ASRT Centennial news and social media mentions that feature the observance of the centennial anniversary. Experience the web page at asrt.org/100.

Additional Centennial events include an expanded annual meeting and educational session in Albuquerque, New Mexico, June 24-28, and new displays, exhibits and two new educational films in the ASRT Museum and Archives. The organization is also producing two extensively researched books on the history of ASRT, its state affiliate societies and the profession.
