WAVELENGTHS2019 is comprised of a pre-symposium research workshop and a full-day symposium for imaging technologists to build their skills and showcase works-in-progress, quality improvement projects, innovations in practice and completed research.
2019 is our inaugural year for offering this research workshop and full-day symposium that recognizes the growing interest in cultivating quality improvement and research competencies among imaging technologists. Imaging technologists from all modalities are invited to participate as speakers and participants in what will be a dynamic opportunity for sharing knowledge and building professional networks.
Our keynote speakers include Ms. Catherine Wang, Vice President of Clinical Operations and Diagnostic Partnerships at University Health Network, Sinai Health Systems and Women’s College Hospital and Dr. Narinder Paul, Chair/Chief, Department of Medical Imaging in the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, Western University and its teaching hospitals, London Health Sciences Centre and St. Joseph’s Health Care London.
The symposium will also provide opportunities for students, researchers, patients, educators and health professionals, health service leaders, from all disciplines to:
- Share knowledge, ideas and best practices for imaging and service delivery
- Present current research interests, questions and findings
- Learn more about imaging scholarship and research happening locally, nationally and internationally
