Excellence in Imaging Informatics Award Nominations Open May 19-June 30

The American Board of Imaging Informatics (ABII) is now accepting nominations for the 2025 Excellence in Imaging Informatics Award. Since 2023, the award celebrates outstanding achievements in the field.

Last year, we focused on recognizing outstanding Certified Imaging Informatics Professionals (CIIPs) and vendors that sell products or provide services in imaging informatics. This year, we're expanding the program to honor employers who support professionals in obtaining and maintaining the CIIP certification. One winner will be chosen for each category.

"This year we're excited to honor outstanding contributions by employers with our Excellence in Imaging Informatics Award," says Kevin Lawrence, Director of ABII. "Employers play a pivotal role in advancing the profession and the credential."
