Global Education

The following open access educational offerings have been developed by ARRS, the ARRS International Outreach Committee, and ARRS Global Partners to share information on various topics in radiology. ARRS aims through the global education program to provide knowledge and expertise that is meant to be shared with radiologists, in-training radiologists, and allied professionals throughout the world. These global education offerings do not offer credit.
