“…In assessing the forms of mentorship received by potential IR trainees, Hoffman et al in 2020 touted that despite the efforts of many IR program directors (PDs) to personally fulfill mentorship roles, many programs typically lack formal mentorship programs and do not receive adequate departmental financial support or time for effective implementation. 62 This has resulted in informal, ad hoc, and often ineffectual mentorship.…”

Achieving parity in representation within the field of Interventional Radiology (IR) across women and specific subsets of minority groups has been a challenge. The lack of a strongly diverse physician workforce in gender, race, and ethnicity suggests suboptimal recruitment after, during as well prior to IR training. There is a dearth of studies which effectively characterize the national demographic trends of the evolving IR workforce. This has prevented an accurate appraisal of continuing efforts to narrow the gaps in physician workforce diversity across the field of IR. To support these needs, this article illustrates historic trends while providing contemporary data that canvasses the status of diversity within the current IR physician and IR trainee workforce. It highlights the representation of those individuals historically underrepresented in medicine as well as women. It also highlights current obstacles to achieving equity, diversity, and inclusion within the field of IR as well as existing efforts that have been employed to mitigate this gap.

“…Dr Davenport’s emphasis on mentorship is especially important in the field of radiology, where many residency programs lack formal mentorship programs. One study surveying integrated interventional radiology residency program directors showed that only 13 of 23 participating programs had formal mentorship and even fewer had departmental support [ 5 ]. Addressing the barriers to implementing these programs—such as financial cost and lack of time—is necessary for the development of current and future radiologists.…”

As in any field, radiologists may face a number of challenges as they navigate their early careers. Because with experience comes wisdom, early-career radiologists may find helpful the advice and perspectives of mid-and late-career radiologists. The Society of Abdominal Radiology recognizes the value of this pool of knowledge and experience, prompting the establishment of the Early Career Committee. This group is designed to support early-career radiologists by sharing the experiences
