title: International pediatric radiology education: who should be trained, and how?
abstract: Education is a key component in international outreach. In light of the growing importance of diagnostic imaging in both developed and developing countries, we need to embrace the goals of standardizing training, establishing international standards, and promoting innovations and advances in pediatric radiology internationally. The World Federation of Pediatric Imaging hopes to promote this work through education, improving diagnostic imaging and therapy access to children worldwide.
