Texas Radiological Society

What Texas Radiological Society does

The Texas Radiological Society (TRS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit professional medical society founded in 1914 (with informal origins traced to 1903) and headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. TRS operates as the recognized Texas Chapter of the American College of Radiology and serves approximately 2,900+ members comprising diagnostic radiologists, radiation oncologists, medical physicists, residents, fellows, and medical students across Texas. The organization's mission is to serve, promote, and advance the profession of radiology through continuing medical education, legislative advocacy, and professional development.

TRS generates revenue across five primary streams: tiered annual membership dues ($0 to $250 per member, processed through the ACR portal), annual meeting registration ($445 to $695 per attendee for a 3-day flagship event in Austin), annual partner sponsorships ($10,000 per slot combining homepage advertising, email blasts, and platinum exhibiting), webinar sponsorships ($500 per event), and Career Center job postings ($100 to $200 per posting). Additional funding flows through the TRS Foundation (501(c)(3) charitable subsidiary supporting scholarships, fellowships, and humanitarian programs) and the TRS PAC (general-purpose political action committee established 2004). Dues rebate incentives (20% first year, 10% subsequent for group-billed practices) target employer-paid memberships.

The technology stack is non-proprietary and lightweight: membership and event management runs on YourMembership.com (association management software), webinars are delivered via Zoom with recordings hosted on Dropbox, and members access a dedicated TRS mobile app. TRS does not develop AI/ML products but curates educational content on informatics and AI applications in radiology. The organization operates with a lean staff of three full-time employees (Executive Director Christy McDonald CAE, Program Manager Amie Driggers, and Meeting Planner/Program Manager Abigail Rodriguez) supported by an elected physician board. TRS has accumulated more than 25 ACR Chapter Recognition Program awards since 2003, including the 2020-2025 Excellence in Meetings/Education Award streak and multiple Overall Excellence Awards.

Direct peers

• Texas Society of Clinical Oncology: State-level professional society for Texas oncologists. Comparable in operating a Texas-specific membership society with CME, advocacy at the state capitol, and annual meetings; differs in oncology specialty focus rather than diagnostic radiology.
• Florida Radiological Society: ACR state chapter for Florida radiologists offering CME, advocacy, and annual meeting programming. Directly comparable peer in membership society structure, with similar revenue mix (dues, meetings, sponsorships) and ACR chapter awards participation.
• Pennsylvania Radiological Society: ACR state chapter for Pennsylvania radiologists. Closely comparable peer in society structure, revenue model, and ACR Chapter Recognition Program participation. Both compete in the Division E award category based on chapter size.
• Texas Medical Association: Statewide professional society for all Texas physicians — TRS members are typically also TMA members. Operates the same Texas-focused advocacy, CME, and annual meeting model, providing a regional benchmark for society scale and legislative engagement depth.
• California Radiological Society: Another ACR state chapter serving California's radiologists. Operates the same professional society model with CME, advocacy, and annual meetings. Highly comparable in structure, revenue model, and mission; differs in state-level policy focus and California-specific membership scale.
• New York State Radiological Society: ACR state chapter serving radiologists in New York. Operates parallel society functions — CME, legislative advocacy, annual meetings. Direct structural peer with comparable member base size and similar mix of academic and private practice radiologists.

Broad incumbents

• American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO): National specialty society for radiation oncologists — one of TRS's core member segments. Comparable in delivering CME, advocacy, and annual meeting programming to a defined radiology subspecialty; differs in being specialty-specific rather than state-chapter focused.
• American College of Radiology: National parent organization of which TRS is the Texas Chapter. ACR provides membership processing, RADPAC alignment, and the Chapter Recognition Program awards framework. Directly comparable mission (advancing radiology) and membership model, but operates at national rather than state scope.
• Radiological Society of North America (RSNA): Premier international radiology society hosting the largest annual radiology meeting (RSNA Annual Meeting) and offering extensive CME. Comparable mission around advancing radiology, but at global scale with significantly larger membership, meeting attendance, and publication portfolio.
• American Roentgen Ray Society: One of the oldest radiology professional societies in the US, publishing the American Journal of Roentgenology. Operates a similar membership society model with CME and annual meetings; differs in being journal-driven and national rather than state-chapter focused.
