The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) has named the recipients of its distinguished author awards, which recognize the best peer-reviewed articles published in ASRT’s scientific journals in 2024.
Presented annually, the awards are chosen by members of each journal’s respective editorial review board after a comprehensive review of all scholarly articles published in the journals during the previous calendar year.
The ASRT is highlighting the following award winners:
- Kerry Dunn, Radiologic Technology Distinguished Author Award in honor of Jean I. Widger, "Exploring the Definition of Clinical Radiography Leadership,” published in the January/February 2024 issue of Radiologic Technology.
- Alex Ashley, Mark Roytman, Vishruta Dumane, PhD, Keith Edwards, Karyn Goodman, MD, and Samantha Skubish, “High-Dose Gating Protocol for Deaf Patients in Radiation Oncology,” published in the fall 2024 issue of Radiation Therapist.
The Widger award is named after longtime Radiologic Technology editor Jean I. Widger. The Silverman award is named in honor of radiation therapist Harold Silverman, an advocate for accreditation of radiation therapy education programs.
The ASRT will honor the recipients at the honors evening on June 20 at the 2025 ASRT Annual Governance and House of Delegates Meeting.
