Abstract
Despite women's early involvement in and contributions to the field of radiology, such as Marie Curie's work in radiation physics and chemistry, women have long remained lacking in their representation among radiologists, including in academics. While many other medical specialties have gradually become more proportionate or even equalized in their gender distribution, radiology continues to exist as a predominately male specialty. In this special topics issue, we aim to explore the landscape of female representation in academic radiology over time, not only in number, but in research productivity, recognition and accolades, and grant and funding reception. We discuss the progress that has been made and factors that have influenced that progress, as well as the crucial role that women currently hold in the field of academic radiology.
