Area of Science:

  • Medical Economics
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Gender Studies in Medicine

Background:

  • Industry relationships are crucial for technological innovation and professional development in interventional radiology.
  • Diversity is increasingly recognized as important, yet women remain underrepresented in interventional radiology.
  • Existing gender disparities in academic medicine warrant investigation within interventional radiology's industry partnerships.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize gender disparities in financial relationships between industry and academic interventional radiologists.
  • To quantify the differences in industry payments received by male and female physicians in the field.
  • To identify factors influencing these financial relationships, including gender, academic rank, and experience.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective cross-sectional study of U.S. academic interventional radiologists identified via fellowship program websites.
  • Analysis of publicly available databases for physician gender, academic rank, years since graduation, h-index, and 2018 industry payments.
  • Statistical comparison of payments between genders using Wilcoxon and chi-square tests; general linear model for predictor assessment.

Main Results:

  • Women comprised 13% (108/842) of academic interventional radiologists.
  • Women received only 1% ($147,975.28) of total industry payments ($14,206,599.41) distributed to 81% of physicians.
  • Female physicians received fewer payments (74% vs. 83%, p=0.04) with lower median amounts ($535 vs. $792, p=0.01); male gender independently predicted higher payments.

Conclusions:

  • Significant gender disparity exists in industry payments within academic interventional radiology, with women receiving substantially less funding.
  • Male gender was an independent predictor of higher industry payments, irrespective of academic rank, h-index, or years since graduation.
  • The observed gender gap in physician-industry relationships requires further investigation and corrective action to promote equity.
