Abstract
© American Society of Neuroradiology. All rights reserved. The ASNR is the premier professional society for neuroradiology, a field that persists in attracting and training a minority of women. While there has been only slow progress in the number of women entering radiology overall and particularly neuroradiology, in the past decade the ASNR has demonstrated dramatic positive change in the gender diversity of its leadership. Between 1962 and 2009, only 2 of the 46 ASNR Presidents were women, yet in this most recent decade, more than half of the Presidents appointed have been women. In this editorial, we attribute this tipping point change to a variety of factors.
