American Society of Neuroradiology Profile and History

The American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR) is a professional membership society comprised of almost 6,000 physicians specializing in the field of neuroradiology. The ASNR was founded on April 19, 1962 in New York and incorporated in the State of New York on February 1, 1965.

It is practiced in hospital settings, academic/educational institutions, and private practice. The ASNR is headquartered in Oak Brook, Illinois, a near-western suburb of Chicago. The ASNR is comprised of 18 full-time professional staff members. We promote the highest standards for clinical practice, education, and research in neuroradiology. We are committed to propagating evidence-based medical information. As much of the world heads into another period of surging COVID-19 infections, we urge all to focus on science and to implement evidence-based COVID-19 infection prevention and control strategies . ASNR is committed to a welcoming environment for all participants in its events and users of its resources. All participants are required to conduct themselves in a professional manner at all times. We encourage a culture of bystander allyship and positive mentorship and professional modelling.
