Academic radiology at Indiana University had its beginnings nearly a century ago with one radiographer and one X-ray machine. But, thanks to exceptional leadership, dramatic growth and change has taken place over the decades that followed. Today, the Indiana University Department of Radiology is composed of a large, dedicated group of physicians, residents, fellows, technologists and support staff. Using the most technologically advanced equipment available the department provides the highest level of radiologic training, imaging services and patient care. This is the story of those people who have worked tirelessly to shape the department over the past 98 years. It is because of their ingenuity, dedication to their craft, and love of teaching that the Indiana University Department of Radiology has thrived.
