About Us
Mission
The mission of the ACR Institute for Radiologic Pathology (AIRP®) is to advance the science of radiology for radiology residents, fellows, practicing radiologists and other physicians through a pathophysiologic understanding of disease as the basis for radiologic interpretation.
The American College of Radiology Institute for Radiologic Pathology
The AIRP provides a unique radiology training experience for residents and fellows. The AIRP four-week Radiologic Pathology Correlation Course offers excellent training for radiology residents, fellows and practicing radiologists from around the world:
- Comprehensive review of radiologic imaging offered five times per year.
- Radiologic presentation of a broad range of diseases and their pathological basis from all organ systems and imaging modalities.
- Expert faculty from some of the most prestigious radiology programs in the U.S.
- Access to temporary housing opportunities throughout the DC area.
Case Submission
Resident admission to the Rad-Path Course requires you to submit a case report demonstrating radiologic-pathologic correlation to our database. Your case submissions are intended to provide you with an introduction to radiologic-pathologic correlation before attending the course. Ideally, this case report format will encourage multidisciplinary interaction with your surgical and pathology colleagues. Additionally, your submissions are vital to maintaining the AIRP archive. The diversity of high-quality cases in the archive allows for continued study of disease processes with pathologic correlation and provides teaching material to emphasize Radiologic-Pathologic Correlation during current and future courses. We thank you for your diligent work in accomplishing this vital task and the sharing of your material. It is only through your efforts that we can continue this educational excellence.
