The American College of Radiology (ACR) has announced Ruth Carlos, MD, MS, as the next editor-in-chief of the Journal of the American College of Radiology (JACR) beginning in 2019. She succeeds Bruce J. Hillman, MD, who founded the JACR in 2004.

Her years of experience developing online features and leading our social media initiatives will serve her well as she considers strategies to further her goals for the journal. I am honored to have her succeed me as editor-in-chief of JACR. I expect to see great things from the journal during her watch as editor.”
