Radiographer of the Year

We have a winner!

ISRRT DoseWise Radiographer of the Year – 2017

Mr Sanghun Kim, Radiological Technologist at the Samsung Medical Center in Seoul, South Korea, is our winner.

His case demonstrates a unique perspective on using existing technology but in a different manner, that satisfied clinical objectives, and resulted in efficient control over patient and operators radiation dosage. His study also demonstrated innovative methods for carrying out the study, identifying the target population for the modified technique, and clearly presented the limitations – all necessary elements of a well-executed study.
