Neuroimaging in Low- to Middle-Income Countries: A Health Equity Perspective

Bridging neuroimaging disparities requires coordinated action that integrates technological innovation, workforce development, and long-term collaboration. Expanding the use of portable and low-cost imaging systems, global teleradiology, and artificial intelligence alongside education, outreach, and policy engagement can help build capacity and improve access. Sustained partnerships between high- and low-resource regions are essential to achieving a more equitable and globally connected neuroradiology community with the potential to improve health outcomes worldwide.

Abstract

Bridging neuroimaging disparities requires coordinated action that integrates technological innovation, workforce development, and long-term collaboration. Expanding the use of portable and low-cost imaging systems, global teleradiology, and artificial intelligence alongside education, outreach, and policy engagement can help build capacity and improve access. Sustained partnerships between high- and low-resource regions are essential to achieving a more equitable and globally connected neuroradiology community with the potential to improve health outcomes worldwide.
