Suhny Abbara named editor of new RSNA online journal

Suhny Abbara, MD, a professor of radiology at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, has been named the editor of RSNA’s new online journal, Radiology: Cardiothoracic Imaging. The journal is scheduled to launch in spring 2019.

“I was thrilled when I learned that RSNA was creating the new journal, Radiology: Cardiothoracic Imaging,” Abbara said in a prepared statement. “The next 10 years in cardiothoracic imaging will be very different from the last 10. This new journal can serve as a catalyst for the science and research that drive this positive change, and I am convinced that it can aid in the translation of research into clinical practice. I am honored to be able to serve as editor for this timely new journal.”

Abbara also currently serves as an attending physician at Zale Lipshy University Hospital, Clements University Hospital and Parkland Health and Hospital System, all in Dallas. He has served on numerous journal editorial boards and co-authored hundreds of peer-reviewed articles, among other academic texts.

“Suhny Abbara brings a wealth of cardiac expertise and years of dedicated service as an RSNA volunteer to his new position as editor,” Mary C. Mahoney, MD, RSNA board liaison for publications and communications, said in the statement.

Radiology: Cardiothoracic Imaging will be a bi-monthly journal. Beginning this fall, the publication will be accepting submissions.
