Abstract
The Radiology Research Alliance (RRA) of the Association of Academic Radiology (AAR) creates task forces to study emerging trends shaping the future of radiology. This article highlights the findings of the AAR-RRA Task Force on Balancing High Clinical Volumes and non-relative value unit (Non-RVU)-Generating Activities. The Task Force's mission was to evaluate and emphasize the value of non-RVU-generating activities that academic radiologists perform. The work of this Task Force is presented in two separate manuscripts: Part I outlines the current landscape, while this manuscript, Part II, explores future directions for academic radiology departments seeking a better balance between high clinical workloads and non-RVU-generating opportunities for their faculty.
期刊介绍:
Academic Radiology publishes original reports of clinical and laboratory investigations in diagnostic imaging, the diagnostic use of radioactive isotopes, computed tomography, positron emission tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, digital subtraction angiography, image-guided interventions and related techniques. It also includes brief technical reports describing original observations, techniques, and instrumental developments; state-of-the-art reports on clinical issues, new technology and other topics of current medical importance; meta-analyses; scientific studies and opinions on radiologic education; and letters to the Editor.
