This month’s edition of the Radiation Research Podcast features Dr. Marilyn Goske from the Department of Radiology at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. This is a special issue on discussing the recent campaign Image Gently, which is an initiative of the Alliance for Radiation Safety in Pediatric Imaging.

Marilyn Goske, M.D.
- The Alliance goal is to change practice: to raise awareness of the opportunities to lower radiation dose in the imaging of children.
- The Alliance strategy to meet the goal is straightforward information provided to every member of the care team.

Message from Dr. Goske: “Please go to www.imagegently.org today to pledge, it is free and you will receive our quarterly newsletter with campaign updates”
