The case

2027 season

Teams receive a detailed case study developed by a leading medical facility. The 2027 case is authored by AdventHealth. Each case tackles a real-world challenge in radiology administration, and topics may include AI adoption, productivity benchmarking, capital budgeting, dose management, staffing or imaging operations.

Case competitions are widely recognized across academic disciplines for their ability to enhance a curriculum through experiential learning. RadX gives your team a national platform to apply what they know to a real problem, and participation works as a capstone experience and as a line on a résumé that shows leadership, analytical and presentation skills.

Your team analyzes the case, develops a solution and presents its recommendations to the judges. There is no cost to enter and all presentations are delivered virtually.
