The goal of the ASN is to promote the highest standards of neuroimaging in clinical practice, thereby improving the quality of medical care for patients with diseases of the nervous system. This goal is accomplished through:

• Presenting scientific and educational programs at an annual meeting and through promotion of fellowships, preceptorships, tutorials, and seminars related to neuroimaging;
• Publishing a scientific journal;
• formulating and promoting high standards of practice and setting training guidelines;
• Evaluating physician competency through examinations.

Members receive:

• Reduced rates on continuing medical education offered to members through symposia, seminars and the scientific program at the Annual Meeting.
• A subscription to the Journal of Neuroimaging, which keeps members apprised of the newest neuroimaging developments. The journal, which is published quarterly, is included in the NIH National Library of Medicine, and listed in Index Medicus.
