Projects

The mandate of the Canadian Radiological Foundation (CRF) is to fund projects which help to shape the future of radiology in Canada.

In support of this directive, the CRF has sustained a wide range of activities over the years. To name a few:

• the CRF supported the initial development of Diagnostic Imaging Referral Guidelines for Canadian physicians several years ago which has led more recently to the support of international efforts on guidelines development and the 2010 CAR International Guidelines Symposium; and
• the CRF commissioned the report "Medical Imaging in Northern Canada: A Snapshot in Time" in 2009;
• the CRF financed, earlier in 2011, two current research studies: Learning Breast Examination Through Sonographic Palpation and Learning Styles in Diagnostic Radiology: Informing Curriculum Changes & Mentorship.
