The Imperative for Diversity and Inclusion in Interventional Radiology.
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of our study was to review key social justice and competitive advantage arguments for diversity in interventional radiology (IR) to substantiate the need for a more inclusive workforce. CONCLUSION. As a specialty based on innovation and flexibility of thought, IR is well positioned to be a driver of diversity and inclusion in medicine. The status quo is far from ideal. Social justice and business advantage arguments provide us with the imperative for change.
