Abstract:
This paper proposes a nationwide initiative to enhance radiology care in Saudi Arabia by addressing disparities in equipment, technology, and expertise across healthcare facilities. The initiative focuses on six key areas: standardization, workforce development, patient- centered care, interprofessional collaboration, quality improvement, and leveraging technology and innovation. The implementation strategy involves establishing a national steering committee, developing plans, securing resources, engaging stakeholders, and monitoring progress. By investing in technology, empowering a skilled workforce, fostering collaboration and innovation, and prioritizing patient-centered care, Saudi Arabia can set a new standard for radiology services, improve patient outcomes, reduce healthcare
disparities, and build a stronger healthcare system. The success of this initiative will be
measured by its impact on the lives of patients and their families, ultimately improving the health and well-being of the population and positioning Saudi Arabia as a leader in
healthcare excellence.
