Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Academic Medicine
  • Research Administration

Background:

  • Academic radiology departments play a vital role in advancing medical knowledge.
  • Understanding the current state of research resources is essential for strategic development.
  • Previous assessments of research infrastructure in radiology are limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the availability and impact of research resources in North American academic radiology departments.
  • To identify key factors correlating with research productivity and grant funding.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed to 72 North American institutions.
  • The questionnaire covered department size, research resources, training, quality control, and productivity.
  • Regression analysis was used to identify significant correlates of grant support.

Main Results:

  • Correlates of grant productivity included dedicated research space, budget size, and support staff (engineers, physicists, chemists).
  • The number of employed engineers, attending staff, and engineer-led training lectures were highly associated with grant funding.
  • Overall research resources were generally found to be low across institutions.

Conclusions:

  • Despite a desire for quality research, many radiology departments face resource limitations.
  • Increased investment in departmental resources and personnel is recommended to boost research output.
  • Emphasis on research training and quality control is desired by respondents.
