The Society for Pediatric Radiology is governed by an elected Board of Directors including six Directors, the Secretary, the Treasurer, the President, President-Elect, First Vice President, Second Vice President and Board Chair. Elections for the Second Vice President, Directors and other Society positions are held annually prior to the Society's annual meeting. Each Director serves a three-year term; each officer in succession serves one year in each position. The Secretary and Treasurer serve three-year terms following an overlap year with their predecessors served at Secretary- and Treasurer-elect.

The Chief Executive Officer of the Society is the Chairman of the Board of Directors, who ascends to that position following the year served as President. Officers enter the succession to the Presidency in the first year as Second Vice-President, the second is served as First Vice president, the third as President-Elect, the fourth as President and the fifth as Board Chair.

The President is responsible for planning and presiding over the Society's annual meeting and is assisted in this responsibility by the meeting and education-related committees.

The Board of Directors has contracted with the ACR for comprehensive management services and employs a full time Executive Director and Director of Education and Meetings who are responsible for functions related to administrative services, meeting services, financial management, informatics, computer services, continuing medical education, and communications.

The strength of the Society lies in the generous efforts of the many dedicated committee members and in the broad participation of members in the educational, scientific and outreach activities.
