Abstract

Radiologists practising in Australia and Aotearoa/New Zealand are part of diverse healthcare communities with a commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centred care against a backdrop of natural beauty and rich culture. The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (RANZCR) is the peak professional body for specialist and trainee radiologists in clinical radiology. While RANZCR oversees clinical radiology training, fellowship and professional practice, Australia and New Zealand each have their own medical regulatory boards and accreditation councils that manage the medical registration of clinicians in their respective countries. This paper provides introductory guidance regarding clinical radiology specialty training in Australia and New Zealand, as well as outlining the pathways that may be available for international medical specialists and pre-vocational doctors considering practising radiology in these countries.
