【Department Introduction】 The Department of Radiology is a comprehensive unit integrating radiological examination, diagnosis, treatment, research, and teaching. It primarily encompasses four specialties: general radiology, CT, MRI, and interventional radiology. The Medical Imaging Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University is a key specialty in Guangdong Province, with the Radiology Department serving as one of its subspecialties and also as a training base for imaging medicine specialists. The department currently has 65 medical and technical staff, including 22 physicians (3 professors/chief physicians, 1 chief physician, 12 associate chief physicians, and the remainder attending physicians, with 8 holding doctoral degrees and 6 holding master's degrees), 26 technicians (including 1 chief technician, 2 associate chief technicians, and 6 supervising technicians), 1 engineer, and 9 nurses (2 with associate senior titles), forming a well-structured talent echelon. The department is equipped with large-scale imaging diagnostic devices, including: a 128-slice multi-slice spiral CT, a 16-slice multi-slice spiral CT, a 3T ultra-high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, a 1.5T MRI system, a digital subtraction angiography system, a fully digital gastrointestinal radiography system, a flat-panel mammography system, as well as a computed radiography (CR) system, a direct digital radiography (DR) system, a mobile direct digital radiography system, and a multifunctional X-ray machine. Through complete computerization, it has evolved into a modern medical imaging center, with each subspecialty equipped with advanced imaging devices in the industry. The PACS system of the Medical Imaging Department is seamlessly integrated with the hospital's HIS system. In 2004, the Radiology Department established an interventional operating room to perform interventional procedures for neurological, cardiovascular, and peripheral conditions. The Radiology Department frequently holds consultation discussions with other imaging subspecialties and clinical disciplines, participating in hospital-wide discussions on difficult respiratory cases chaired by Academician Zhong Nanshan, as well as consultations on challenging cases from departments such as Thoracic Surgery, Respiratory Medicine, and Orthopedics. It also participates in consultation and treatment work for hemoptysis, renal hemorrhage, obstetric and gynecological hemorrhage, and pulmonary embolism in multiple hospitals within and outside the province. During the fight against SARS in 2003, the Radiology Department was honored with the titles of "Advanced Unit in Guangdong Province for Combating SARS" and "Model Unit in Guangzhou for Combating SARS." Twenty-four individuals, including Zeng Qingsi and Song Yuquan, received the "Third-Class Merit in Guangzhou for Combating SARS" award. 【Teaching Work】 The Radiology Diagnosis Teaching and Research Office has been responsible for teaching in the imaging specialty since 1985 and is currently recognized as a Guangzhou City quality course. It undertakes undergraduate teaching for medical imaging, clinical medicine, anesthesiology, and other programs, as well as full English teaching for medical imaging in the Nanshan Class and international student classes. The teaching team is primarily composed of young and middle-aged teaching骨干, forming a professional technical team guided by senior experts and led by young and middle-aged experts, with a well-structured talent echelon. The Radiology Department consistently provides standardized training for all staff members to comprehensively enhance the clinical diagnostic, research, and teaching capabilities of young physicians. The diagnostic group holds training sessions every two weeks and conducts morning film-reading conferences daily. Since 2013, English film-reading activities have been introduced. The technical group, in addition to holding film-reading activities twice a week, also engages in targeted rotations for large-scale equipment such as CT, MRI, and DSA, combining learning with practical work. 【Research Work】 The Radiology Department has always placed great emphasis on research work. Under the leadership of earlier directors including Director Zhou Xiaozhen, Director Xie Nianwei, Director Cai Zhaoda, and Director Su Su, the department's research work has been carried out in an orderly and progressive manner. In 1999, the "Series Study on Imaging Diagnosis of Tracheobronchial Tuberculosis," jointly researched by Cai Zhaoda and Zeng Qingsi, won the "Third Prize of Guangzhou Science and Technology Progress Award." During the SARS period, through the joint efforts of the department's directors, a series of articles on SARS were published in key domestic core journals ahead of others; Director Zeng Qingsi also received the Second Prize of Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Achievement Award. In recent years, the main clinical research projects undertaken by the Radiology Department include: study on the correlation between systemic-pulmonary shunts and pulmonary hypertension in chronic lung diseases and interventional shunt occlusion; study on the correlation between MR diffusion, BOLD-fMRI, and pathology in diabetic nephropathy; study on MR functional imaging of peripheral nerve injury; study on the correlation between radiation dose and image quality (noise) in digital radiography; and development of a digital radiography simulation teaching system. Additionally, the department has vigorously developed research on interventional treatment for bronchial hemoptysis and renal hemorrhage, diagnosis and efficacy evaluation of bone and joint trauma, and CT diagnosis and research of the respiratory system. It currently undertakes or participates in multiple national, provincial, and ministerial-level research projects, presiding over 2 general projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China and over 10 research projects at the provincial department level or above. The department publishes more than 20 academic papers at the provincial level or above annually, including 10 SCI papers. It has won one Second Prize of Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Achievement Award and has edited or co-edited multiple monographs. The Radiology Department has consecutively held the National Continuing Education Training Course for 16 years: the Advanced Course on Respiratory Imaging Diagnosis, inviting many renowned domestic imaging experts for exchange and lectures.
