The purpose of the committee is to represent the interests of radiologists below the age of 37 years. There are six committee members, having a four-year term.
The elections were last held in June 2004. One the most important responsibilities of the committee is to organize a biannual meeting (forum for and by young radiologists). This provides a good opportunity for the younger generation to present papers and case-reports. Several film-reading sessions and hands-on workshops are also held simaltaneously. The meetings are livened up by culture and sports program. Earlier, a successful youth club existed, which was temporarily suspended. This will be reactivated in the near-future. It is our aim to collect under one umbrella as many young radiologists as possible, and also to effectively deal with their academic and work-related issues.
The committe has been assured of continuous support in all fields by the Society of Hungarian Radiologists.
