A uniform acceptance date for resident recruitment.

Residency recruitment in diagnostic radiology remains a challenge. We recommend a unified policy of recruitment, to be agreed upon and adhered to by all residency training program directors. We endorse the action discussed at the 1985 Residency Training Program Symposium in Nashville to institute a Resident Match and strongly urge all program directors to participate. With more qualified candidates and a shrinking number of positions, it is the only rational solution to this dilemma.
