Core Tip
Core Tip: Our analysis casts a spotlight on important trends being witnessed in regard to the mental health of radiologists. These include lack of funding for mental health research, narrowing of female vs male citation gap, as well as authorship and citation trends. By studying these patterns, we can understand key areas lacking in the current bulk of radiological research and subsequently address them to improve the long-term yield, variety, and impact of radiological studies.
