title: Academic recognition of educational scholarship.
abstract: Educators in radiology have an essential role in promoting the development and education of future radiologists and in the continuing education of radiologists. The contributions of educators to the viability and growth of the specialty require equal legitimacy to research in academic recognition. Development of educators and documentation of educational activities are key elements in achieving academic status for scholarly activity.
