The International Day of Radiology (IDoR) is an annual event promoting the role of medical imaging in modern healthcare. It is celebrated on November 8 each year, and coincides with the anniversary of the discovery of x-rays. It was first introduced in 2012, as a joint initiative, by the European Society of Radiology (ESR), the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), and the American College of Radiology (ACR).[1]

The International Society of Radiographers and Radiological Technologists have celebrated 8 November as World Radiography Day.

Radiographers Association of Madhya Pradesh(India) has celebrated this day since 1996 and the theme for this day was raised by Mr. Shivakant Vajpai, Secretary of Madhya Pradesh Radiographers Association, also holding a designation of Radiation Safety Officer and Senior Radiographer in Government of Madhya Pradesh, India.

Background

On November 8, 1895 Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered X-rays, effectively laying the foundation for the new medical discipline of radiology. [3]

The International Day of Radiology is a successor to the European Day of Radiology which was launched in 2011. The first and only European Day of Radiology was held on February 10, 2011 to commemorate the anniversary of Röntgen's death. The European day was organised by the ESR, who later entered into cooperation with the RSNA and the ACR to establish the International Day of Radiology.

The theme for

2017 is emergency radiology

2016- breast radiology

2015- paediatric radiology

IDoR 2012

The International Day of Radiology 2012 marked the 117th anniversary of Röntgen's discovery of x-rays and the main theme was medical imaging in oncology. The day was celebrated with events in many countries, mostly organised by national professional societies which represent radiologists. Many public lectures on the role of imaging in oncology took place across Europe. In the UK, the Royal College of Radiologists organised a free public lecture at the Wellcome Collection by Dr. Phil O'Connor, who served as head of musculoskeletal imaging at the London 2012 Olympics.[4]

The ESR published two booklets to mark the occasion, 'The Story of Radiology', which was created in cooperation with the International Society for the History of Radiology, and 'Making Cancer Visible: the role of cancer in oncology'[5]
