Perspective

Managing Risk: Threat or Opportunity?

Richard B. Gunderman and Kimberly E. Applegate

Department of Radiology, Indiana University, 702 N Barnhill Dr., Rm. 1053, Indianapolis, IN 46202.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE. Radiologists often regard risk management as a burden or even a threat. This article examines some of the most important reasons every radiologist should regard managing risk as an opportunity.

CONCLUSION. There are short-term risks and costs to a program of risk management, but they are far less than the long-range costs of inaction. More importantly, managing risk well is an opportunity to excel as a physician and leader.
