The mission of Rad Health Equity is to improve access to radiology through research, awareness and practical implementation in underserved communities.

Rad Health Equity has a strong interest in the socioeconomic causes of the uneven burden of cancer-related mortality. We continue to focus on the next generation of molecular imaging probes, but focus on finding means of cost-effective and practical integration.

It is our belief that cost-effective diagnostics will translate to broader access to more effective therapeutics. Cancer equity will be addressed by combining these areas of focus into one goal, dedicated towards the responsible translation of investigational compounds into the communities most at-risk.
