Make an Impact: Volunteer with Us
Join a community of dedicated radiology professionals working together to shape the future of medical imaging in Canada. Whether through working groups, standing committees, or special projects, volunteering with the CAR is a meaningful way to share your expertise, expand your network, and influence national standards and advocacy efforts. No matter your career stage, your voice matters. Get involved and help move radiology forward.
Want to Get Involved?
The CAR regularly issues calls for volunteers for Standing Committees, and introduces new Working Groups to address issues on an ad hoc basis. Become a volunteer! Send us an email at info@car.ca and let us know your area of interest.
Standing Committee and Working Group volunteer opportunities are open to CAR members only.
There are also volunteer opportunities open to medical student and resident CAR members. Learn more about these opportunities through the Medical Student Network (MSN) and Resident and Fellow Section (RFS).
Volunteer Recognition
We proudly recognize the invaluable contributions of our dedicated volunteers who serve on working groups and standing committees. Their time, expertise, and leadership help shape the future of radiology in Canada—advancing standards, driving innovation, and strengthening our national voice.
