Matthew A Mauro, MD, was named president and Curtis P Langlotz, MD, PhD, was named chair of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Board of Directors.  

Dr Mauro is president of University of North Carolina (UNC) Faculty Physicians and senior physician executive of UNC Health Care System Revenue Cycle. He is the James H. Scatliff Distinguished Professor of Radiology, as well as a professor of surgery at the UNC School of Medicine in Chapel Hill. He has been a faculty member at UNC since 1982.

Dr Mauro received his medical degree in 1977 from Cornell University Medical College in New York. He completed his residency training in 1980 at the UNC School of Medicine and was chief resident during his last year. Between 1980 and 1982, Dr Mauro completed fellowships in diagnostic and vascular radiology at UNC and abdominal and interventional radiology at the Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.

As RSNA president, Dr Mauro will support RSNA’s mission by shepherding the Society through the evolving health care landscape and advancing the field of radiology through dissemination of high-quality research and education.

“The health care landscape is rapidly changing as we enter our post-pandemic environment,” Dr Mauro said. “In addition to technical and scientific advances, we can anticipate changes to our health care delivery systems, labor management and patient expectations. The RSNA will maintain our position as the great convener for all those who interact with our members to advance the fields of diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology, radiation oncology and medical physics. I am honored to have the privilege of serving as president of the RSNA.”

Dr Langlotz is a renowned imaging informatics leader and committed advocate for improved clinical communication. He is a professor of radiology, medicine and biomedical data science, director of the Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine and Imaging, and associate chair for information systems in the Department of Radiology at Stanford University. As a medical informatics director for Stanford Health Care, he sets strategy for the computer technology that supports the Stanford Radiology practice.

As RSNA chair, Dr Langlotz will support the innovative work being done to advance medical imaging technologies—particularly in the areas of informatics and artificial intelligence—and work with the Board of Directors to continue to deliver an outstanding annual meeting experience for attendees.

Dr Langlotz received his medical degree, a master's degree in artificial intelligence and a doctorate in medical information science from Stanford University. He completed an internship and radiology residency at the University of Pennsylvania, where he remained on the faculty for 20 years. He accepted his current position at Stanford in 2014.

"In the coming year, RSNA will continue to develop innovative programs, both virtual and in-person, that deliver the latest in education and research," Dr Langlotz said.
