The Affiliate Societies are an essential part of the CAR, contributing significantly to the educational content featured at CAR 2025. These societies bring together specialists who are passionate about advancing their subspecialties and sharing valuable insights with the broader radiology community.
In conjunction with CAR 2025, the Affiliate Societies will host Business Meetings where all CAR members are invited to attend. These meetings offer a great opportunity to learn about each society’s focus, initiatives, and ways to get involved. If you're interested in connecting with other Canadian radiologists in your subspecialty, these meetings are a must-attend, providing opportunities to enhance your career and expand your professional network with others who share your interests.
