BSR 2020 Annual Meeting: Program

Different times call for different measures. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced us to search for alternative methods to provide an annual meeting which is equally interesting and has quality. For the Belgian Society of Radiology (BSR) 2020 Annual Meeting, the sections on Abdominal Imaging, Thoracic Imaging and the Young Radiologist Section (YRS) joined forces to organize a meeting which is quite different from the ones we have organised in the past. We have chosen to create a compact – approximately 5 hour – and entirely virtual meeting with the possibility of live interaction with the speakers during the question and answer sessions. The meeting kicks off with a message from the BSR president about radiology in 2020, followed by three abdominal talks. The second session combines an abdominal talk with COVID-related talks. We have chosen to include not only thoracic findings in COVID-19, but to take it further and discuss neurological patterns, long-term clinical findings and the progress in artificial intelligence in COVID-19. Lastly, the annual meeting closes off with a short movie about the (re)discovery of Röntgens X-ray, presented to us by the Belgian Museum for Radiology, Military Hospital, Brussels.

BSR 2019 Annual Meeting: Program

For the Belgian Society of Radiology (BSR) 2019 Annual Meeting, the sections on Abdominal Imaging and Leadership, Management and Quality (LMQ) and the Young Radiologist Section (YRS) joined forces to organize parallel morning sessions on pelvic imaging and LMQ. The afternoon program kicks off with a message from the BSR president followed by a session on radiation protection and a short quiz provided by the YRS.

Actual and Future Employment for Radiologists in Belgium: Results of a Survey

Introduction:Belgium counts 1,888 active radiologists. This is an average of 16.2 radiologists per 100,000 people, which is slightly more than the European average of 12.7 per 100,000. Feedback from recently graduated residents suggests difficulties in finding a permanent staff member position and a high demand for dedicated profiles in radiology departments. To objectify this, the Young Radiologist Section (YRS) of the Belgian Society of Radiology (BSR) performed a survey of the radiology job market in Belgium.Material and Methods:An anonymous survey was sent to recently graduated Belgian radiologists (2013–2018) and to the heads of all Belgian radiology departments.Results:The majority of the responding graduates found a permanent staff member position as a radiologist within two years after graduation and around half of the respondents even before graduation (50% in the graduates 2018 and 57% in graduates of 2013–2017). However, a small portion of the responding graduates (8%) needed more than two years to find a staff member position.Of the responding departments, 44% prefers to appoint a radiologist with extra training in one or more subspecialties. The top three of most desired subspecialties is: musculoskeletal imaging, interventional radiology and breast imaging.Conclusion:Half of the responding graduates did not find a permanent staff member position before graduation. However, >90% found such a position within the first two years after graduation. There is a demand for dedicated profiles in almost half of the radiology departments.

A New Editor-in-Chief Takes Over.

A reformatted journal demands a new Editor-in-Chief. Over the last year, the paper-printed Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology has gone through a radical and successful transformation into a fully electronic open medium on an advanced IT platform. The time has thus become right for me to step down as Editor-in-Chief
