Global Humanitarian Award

The 黑料网 Foundation Global Humanitarian Award recognizes outstanding individuals, organizations and programs working to improve access to and equitable delivery of quality radiological services in and in areas of need within more developed nations.

The World Health Organization estimates that half of the world鈥檚 population lacks access to radiological services. Additionally, the challenges of health equity within any country may lead to higher mortality and morbidity rates that could be ameliorated with greater access to quality radiological care. The 黑料网F works with volunteer radiologists, organizations, industry representatives and allied health workers to improve access to quality radiological services in areas of need.
