The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (RANZCR) is a not-for-profit professional organisation for clinical radiologists and radiation oncologists in Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. RANZCR is a membership organisation led by clinicians who are elected by the membership, with oversight from a Board of Directors.
We are the leaders in diagnostic, interventional, and cancer care medicine and associated subspeciality areas through engagement, education, and advocacy; and by supporting clinical excellence. Our Fellows play a critical role in the diagnosis and monitoring of disease, provide interventional treatments and targeted treatments for cancer.
Our evidence-based culture focuses on best practice outcomes for patients and equity of access to high quality care, underpinned by an attitude of compassion and empathy. As an organisation we are committed to diversity and inclusion, and to the training and professional development of our Fellows and trainees throughout their career. We are dedicated to enhancing the health outcomes of Māori, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and to increasing their participation in the professions of clinical radiology and radiation oncology by ensuring our educational programs support best outcomes for them. This includes a commitment to cultural safety in our organisation, for staff and members.

The RANZCR Strategic Plan 2025-2040 focuses on seven strategic priorities: member fulfillment; excellence in training and life-long education; becoming the “voice of our sector”; building the College workplace of the future; commercial opportunities; Oceanic region expansion and leadership; and creating a "sector College".
Our Strategic Plan represents more than a roadmap. It is a vision for the future of our College and for our professions in a time of increasingly rapid medical and technological advancement, government, regulatory and social change, and an uncertain operating environment.
