International Collaborative Research Grant

American Society of Radiologic Technologists Foundation (ASRT)

The International Collaborative Research Grant supports medical imaging and radiation therapy professionals aspiring to partner internationally to conduct a scientific research project in radiologic technology. Our goal is to enhance the profession’s body of knowledge and promote international research collaboration.

A researcher must identify and collaborate with an international researcher to complete a research project within a maximum time frame of two years. One researcher, identified as the principal investigator, must be an ASRT member from the U.S. Either a U.S.-based researcher or an international researcher may submit the initial application, but they must be paired with a research partner at the time of the full proposal submission. If you are having trouble finding a research partner, please contact Foundation@asrt.org and we can take steps to help you connect internationally.

In addition to the research study, the research findings will be submitted for publication in the peer-reviewed journals of both researchers’ institutions and submitted for presentation at their annual conferences. Funding up to $50,000 will be awarded for each approved research project.

AI Based Application Success Predictor

1. Strong relevance to radiologic sciences

The most competitive applications directly address:

diagnostic imaging,
radiation therapy,
radiologic technology education,
imaging quality improvement,
radiation safety,
patient-centered imaging care,
imaging workflow optimization,
advanced imaging technologies.

Clear alignment with radiologic practice is essential.

2. Clear patient-safety or quality-improvement impact

ASRT reviewers strongly favor projects likely to:

reduce radiation exposure,
improve imaging accuracy,
enhance patient safety,
optimize imaging protocols,
improve treatment delivery,
strengthen diagnostic quality.

Patient-care impact is one of the strongest predictors of competitiveness.

3. Feasible and practical study design

Successful proposals usually demonstrate:

realistic clinical implementation,
achievable recruitment goals,
measurable outcomes,
feasible timelines,
clear operational plans.

Projects with direct applicability to imaging departments tend to score highly.

4. Strong methodology and statistical planning

Competitive applications typically include:

robust research design,
validated outcome measures,
appropriate statistical methods,
reproducibility,
quality-assurance strategies.

Weak methodology is a common reason for rejection.

5. Preliminary data or institutional experience

Applications with:

pilot imaging data,
quality-improvement metrics,
retrospective imaging analyses,
prior departmental studies,
feasibility evidence

often receive stronger reviewer confidence.

6. Educational and workforce-development relevance

ASRT Foundation programs often value projects involving:

radiologic education,
simulation training,
competency assessment,
workforce retention,
burnout prevention,
continuing professional education.

Educational innovation is increasingly competitive.

7. Innovation balanced with clinical practicality

Strong applications frequently combine:

AI-assisted imaging,
dose-reduction technologies,
workflow automation,
advanced imaging analytics,
digital radiography optimization

with realistic implementation potential.

8. Interdisciplinary collaboration

Competitive projects often involve:

radiologic technologists,
radiologists,
medical physicists,
oncologists,
educators,
informatics specialists,
statisticians.

Collaborative integration strengthens reviewer confidence.

9. Strong mentorship and institutional support

For students and early-career applicants, reviewers consider:

experienced mentors,
imaging infrastructure,
departmental support,
protected research time,
access to imaging datasets.

Strong institutional backing significantly improves competitiveness.

10. Dissemination and broader practice impact

Reviewers favor projects likely to:

improve national imaging standards,
generate publishable findings,
influence radiologic protocols,
support future grant funding,
enhance evidence-based imaging practice.

Common Reasons for Rejection

Frequent reviewer concerns include:

weak statistical analysis,
limited imaging relevance,
insufficient novelty,
unrealistic timelines,
vague outcome measures,
inadequate feasibility evidence,
poor implementation planning,
weak patient-impact justification.
